Guangdong Modern Dance Company
Upon Calligraphy / Sticks
Created in 1992, the Guangdong Modern Dance Company is Chinas main professional modern dance company, famous worldwide for its superb, fascinating performances. Its vision of modern dance conceived as a tool of personal development and expression attracts Chinas most talented dancers and choreographers.
Upon Calligraphy is a poem in motion, based on the stylistic essence of several Chinese texts. The dancers bodies evoke the calligraphers brushes. The move from slow, delicate movements to faster, more expressive movements corresponds to the development of Chinese writing, and even of communication in general. Sticks is an animated story illustrating the youth of the dancer and choreographer of Tibetan origin, SANG Jijia, and his passion for dance.
