BUTOH (Japanese contemporary dance)


Butoh was born in Japan in the 1960s. Influenced by the European avant-garde, this dance first tackled the great taboos: violence, eroticism, death. Japanese choreographers have sought to express the full range of emotions: bodies painted in white, slow movements, tense and twisted postures which aim to link the conscious and the unconscious, the exterior and the interior.
Created in order to change many aesthetic and conservative ideas, according to Juju Alishina it was not only the emergence of a new style of dance, it was life itself concentrated in a new form. This explains a decor reduced to the simplest expression where crude lighting tracks down the actor-dancer who emerges like a comet.
The Butoh celebrates the rites of life: birth, the burns of amorous passion, pain, death.
In the 1980s, we witness the appearance of a new wave of Butoh in which the resolutely contemporary movements express a new revolt. Juju Alishina can be linked to this new aesthetic.

Juju ALISHINA (Choreographer, Dancer, Japanese dance teacher)


Japanese dancer and choreographer. Born in Kobe(Japan) and trained in traditional Japanese dance, Juju Alishina has worked in Butoh since 1982. In 1990, She founded her own dance company, Nuba, in Tokyo. She has performed with her dancers in Japan, USA and Europe. Having assimilated many different styles and approaches to dance, she has developed her own unique and original movements. having created a "fine blend of traditional and avant-garde" styles. The trademark of the Nuba dance company is its paradoxical combination of shadow and celebration. While remaining loyal to the ceremonies of ancient Japan and eastern dance in general, it is an exciting new approach to Butoh.

Juju Alishina moved her company to Paris and since then has developed her own methods beyond Butoh dance and has lead several artistic and educational activities worldwide. Her dance method book "Butoh Dance Training - Secrets of Japanese dance through the Alishina method" is published in three different languages and is read all over the world.
