As a dance artist:
Ellen Kogan, Solo Dance Artist
“Solo artistry is a unique opportunity to reach one’s personal threshold.
My repertoire is unusually versatile – I hope the contemporary
choreographers will not be forgotten and of course the historical
reconstructions are made by some of the most important dance makers
of our time.”
Teaching and re-staging as follows:
- Re-staging contemporary and/or early modern dances for
performance - includes original costumes and lighting.
- Informal presentation in a studio with an invited audience followed
by discussion.
- Teaching dance history classes – can include various teaching
materials to help the dancers experience the choreography of
another time.
- Lecture demonstrations using rare video footage.
- Scholarly discourse, lectures, and participation in projects that
explore and contrast dance, past and present and the culture it
was created in.
