Discourse: Hiphop in contemporary arts – part 2
- Dansens Hus
- Starts at 18:35
- Price: Free entrance!
Why and how do artists and makers borrow, appropriate and celebrate Hiphop - in terms of methods, expressions, aesthetics, formats and ideas?
Methodology and stylistic characteristics coming from Hiphop bleed into contemporary arts, contemporary dance and popular culture.
In this panel discussion, we will discuss how artists and makers who do not come from Hiphop use its methodology and aesthetics. Why and in what way has this become a trend in contemporary dance? Does this create a dilution of what Hiphop is, or is it enriching? Is Hiphop dancers' knowledge used as an effect in performances and choreography? Or does it help to emphasise what co-creative dance artists are and can be?
Panel: Dancer and choreographer Mathias Jin Budzt, stage arts critic and dancer Grace Tabea Tenga, musician Moonchild Sanelly og dancer and choreographer Oulouy.
Moderator: Artist, writer and community organizer Jessica Lauren Elizabeth Taylor.
The panel discussion will happen after the performance Afrikan Party by Supa Rich Kids by Oulouy, as an extension of the After Talk with the company. It is organized together with Oslo World
