Thinking on the Feet

The Most Revolutionary Concept In Education PLANMAN CHE CENTRE FOR HIGHER EDUCATION, Supported by IIPM India’s Leading B-School

It's time to redefine dance, as we know it. Indira Parthasarathy at the Attakkalari Contemporary Dance Festival...

It doesn't matter if you win or lose, it's what you do with your dancin' shoes.' Remember these lines from “Grease”, that timeless Travolta musical? At the Attakkalari India Biennial 2009 dance festival in Bangalore, it was the whole point. A multi-discipline contemporisation of a medium of expression as dance, accomplished by a unique enterprise of artists and art connoisseurs, resulted in a 10-day long (Feb 6 to 15) extravaganza that the city won’t forget in a hurry.

Like a son et lumière crossed over with a musical, the event brought under one roof – in fact, four (venues) – the theatrics of dance with the magic of design, be in terms of stage installations, acoustic arrangements or lighting technologies. For instance, in Chronotopia, the highly evocative multimedia dance production presented by the Attakkalari Repertory, the choreography that unfurled in sensuously gentle yet amazingly agile moves was accentuated by the dimensions lent by state-of the-art light play, and some haunting music by Paris-based musician Mathias Duplessy. Even though based on an ancient Tamil epic, Chilappathikaram, Chronotopia was still open to interpretation by the audience, as was the case with nearly all other performances at the Festival. Explained Jayachandran Palazhy, Artistic Director of the Festival, as well as one of the performers in Chronotopia, “It’s a journey through space and time. Technology helped to dislodge the sense of chronology at times… The interactive scenography actually reflected the emotional landscape of the characters themselves.”
