Abstract

This book explores Black British dance from a number of previously-untold perspectives. Bringing together the voices of dance-artists, scholars, teachers and choreographers, it looks at a range of performing arts from dancehall to ballet, providing valuable insights into dance theory, performance, pedagogy, identity and culture. It challenges the presumption that Blackness, Britishness or dance are monolithic entities, instead arguing that all three are living networks created by rich histories, diverse faces and infinite future possibilities. Through a variety of critical and creative essays, this book suggests a widening of our conceptions of what Black British dance looks like, where it appears, and who is involved in its creation.

Abstract

Bodies of Knowledge ran from 2019-2021 and was a multi-faceted, interdisciplinary project exploring the human body as a site for the production, retention and transformation of knowledge. At the heart of the project were three groups of artist-facilitated workshops, each of which brought together people with embodied expertise, arts practitioners and academics. Tara Fatehi Irani, Julia Giese and Kesha Raithatha used Kathak dance and movement as a means of sharing individual, collective and familial memories of Partition, migration; and to explore negotiations of gender. Raju Rage worked with Isaac Scott Briggs and Nat Thorne, using analog black and white photography as a means to rethink photographic representation of trans people away from the cis gaze. Joe Moran worked with Claire Warden and Thomas Dawkins (aka Cara Noir) to explore relations of care, violence and the performance of gender in wrestling and contemporary dance.
