@mapple432 For me it's the other way around.
I'm familiar with anne's work (and other contemporary dance choreographers like Wim Vandekeybus and Sidi Larbi) and I know how her dance choreos look like, but I could never see the plagiarism because I don't listen or watch to lame artist as Beyonce.

Why is everybody acting like this is the first time an artist has drawn inspiration from past works and worked them into their own stylings... Beyonce is not the first nor will she be the last to do this...and its not like she was trying to hide or deny that it was Anne's work when asked she said yes she drew from that and took parts from it
-
@qurpje97 hey maybe beyonce did a shitty thing by stealing but now this woma's work is being appreciated on an international scale! and i think anne's work is gorgeous!
-
this chick! is a very highly awarded Belgium choreographer, you ignorant prick.
-
Honestly you guys, who cares? Beyonce is an international star, little to no people at all are going to care that she used this chicks work. At the end of the day, Beyonce is still famous and no one is going to give a damn that part of one of her videos came from this piece.
-
Love it! and i wouldn't get to watch this, if beyonce never using this for inspiration...
-
@DerSongsurfer It would be referencing if it was only one part of the video and like, maybe 20 seconds at the most. It's like a movie that makes a throwaway star wars reference or has a character or two show up. It's another thing entire when a whole scene is being reenacted, word-for-word, nothing modified from the original script. That is insulting to not have asked permission, or better yet, ask Keersmaeker to choreograph something for her!
-
You people are acting like Keersmaeker would have got less recognition if Beyoncé had, I don't know, asked permission first? It's a matter of principle and artistic courtesy from one creative mind to another. You have to ASK first, give her the chance to say no or yes about HER STUFF!
-
@love2beat It's still plagiarism because she only admitted it after she was caught. :-P
It isn't. Not only was some of the choreography exactly the same as Keersmaeker, but Keersmaeker was alive and well and could've been asked about this whole thing. Like, Beyonce could've told her, "I love your work, can I pay tribute in my video?" ya know? But with dead artists, they can't really complain about you "copying them" haha
Hope I answered your questions well. :-)

Wow! In a way I'm glad Beyonce plagerised this because otherwise I don't know how I would've known about this awesome series of videos!

How to look like you are an innovative artiste! The oldest trick in the book...rip off the fringe artists. The mainstream audience is too lazy and would never be so adventurous to know.
