Beginning in 2010, Doosan Art Center and Eun-Me Ahn Dance Company have jointly supported assistance for creative groups to develop works of art in collaboration with the Seoul Cultural Foundation’s support program, and have organized a program founded on the research of Korean bodies and movement. On the basis of this research, Eun-Me Ahn Dance Company applies an anthropological approach to our bodies and movement, and thus expands the realm of contemporary dance with a new interpretation. Following Dance Dedicated to Ancestors, Selfless Dance, and Irresponsible Dance for the Middle-Aged Man, Spectacular 88 Dance takes the stage in 2014. This play documents one of the biggest changes in the examination of Korea’s history?the “88 Seoul Olympic”?and the bodies of the modernizing Korean population. The play further examines Korean society within Korean people’s gestures and the modern “body” living within this society.
