In Search of Dance
by Alexandra Mihaela Dancs
“A friend of mine advised me at some point not to search dance too far from me, because I risk not finding it at all.”
An archive of movements and stories belonging or not to the process of work which started in 2019 at The National Dance Center Bucharest and an attempt to give all these a performative nuance.
Alexandra Mihaela Dancs, independent dancer and choreographer based in Bucharest, collaborates among others with Madalina Dan, Florin Fieroiu, Doris Uhlich, Cosmin Manolescu, Zan Yamashita, Rui Catalao, Jean Lorin Sterian, Vava Stefanescu. In 2010 and 2012 she was a danceWeb scholar at ImpulsTanz Vienna. Since 2009 she leads movement labs and creates at CNDB the dance program Everything for Endorphins. In 2014 she received The Excellency Prize for contributing to the construction of the Romanian Contemporary Dance offered by the National Dance Center of Bucharest. In Search of Dance is her most recent solo work.
