(EHESS, 5pm-8pm)
École des hautes études en sciences sociales (EHESS), 54 bd Raspail, Paris 6th arrondissement, room BS1.05/BS1.28 (Salle du conseil, basement)
Where do the gestures that make up the dances used in the mobilisations of recent years come from? What do these gestures say and do? Under what conditions can dancing contribute to social change?
→ Table of contents and short presentation of issue 115
The authors of this issue of Communications will return to the way in which dances in mobilisations replay the repertoires of social protest and question the body’s relationship to politics, vulnerability, non-violence, and the forces of law and order.
- Discussant: Émilie Da Lage, Professor of Information and Communication Sciences at the University of Lille.
Friday 31 January – What does struggle have to do with dance?
(Bibliothèque Václav Havel, 7-9pm)
Bibliothèque Václav Havel, 26 esplanade Nathalie Sarraute, Paris 18th arrondissement
Engaged dancer-researchers are invited to talk about their activist dance practice: how does activism transform the ways in which dance is danced, created and transmitted?
- Discussants:
- Marie Glon, associate professor of dance at the University of Lille, whose research focuses on the links between bodily practices, writing practices and power.
- Bianca Maurmayr, associate professor of dance at the University of Lille, whose research focuses on the history of dance and the body in the modern era, cultural transfers and the circulation of knowledge, and the links between theory and practice in the arts.
Marie Glon and Bianca Maurmayr co-edited ‘Dancing for Fighting’, issue 115 Communications.
