CONTACT IV

Emerging out of a revolutionary social, artistic and cultural environment of protest and reclamation of rights, “The Human Rights Movement”, this improvisation practice has been growing and rooting itself since the 1970’s, initiated by Steve Paxton, Nancy Stark Smith, and other performers/choreographers of the NY’s new dance movement (or postmodern dance, Banes, 1980), around the Judson Dance Theatre, and the Grand Union.
In continuing expansion throughout the USA, Brazil, Europe, Asia, and all over the world, in cities such as, Paris, London, San Francisco, Los Angeles, São Paulo, the CIJam constitutes a community of communities, an environment where we feel at home any where it happens.
