The goal of this activity is to enrich knowledge about the history of dance, highlight synergies between different styles, create spaces for dialogue and debate that foster critical thinking, collaborate with the community by opening the arts of movement to the public, bring together sector agents, and contribute to raising awareness of contemporary dance.

In this activity with Laura Kumin, we will unravel the stylistic, choreographic, and conceptual elements of dance, thus promoting a deep understanding of artistic creation and delving into the critical analysis of any contemporary dance work.
