La Veronal

Marcos Marau





  • A new choreographer of the field of dance theatre
    • never took a dance lesson
    • uses not only dancers, but also photographers, actors, writers, and film makers
  • These "dancers" do things that are out of the ordinary
    • does not always dance to music
    • dress in random costumes and outfits (eg. fencing clothes)


(Performed in the Seoul International Dance Festival this past Monday)


“We are working on the body language and vocabulary and we think that the music is inside the movement,” the choreographer said. “In my pieces, dancers often work with the rhythms and they are trying to fight the silence. Our goal is to find a rhythm without the music.” 


“I like to put abstraction of movement in a context that you can read and find a new meaning.”
