Recording Dance—From Archive to Exhibition

Kei Osawa

Dance is a temporal performance that does not remain as a piece of work. As recording technology develops, there have been attempts to record works of dance in encompassing ways; but in the end, all we are left with are the materials around us (promotional items and notices, etc.), images (photographs, etc.), and testimonies (critiques, etc.). What kinds of possibilities, then, does an exhibition have for evoking memories of dance? Here we will take another look at what possibilities a dance exhibition can bring, from the perspective of archive building and exhibition planning.
