Laurent Goumarre on Cross-Disciplinary Dance and Video Art

In a 2002 article for artpress, Laurent Goumarre examines how contemporary choreography has historically engaged with other disciplines such as music, visual arts, literature, architecture, film, and photography, but notes that this cross-pollination was largely one-sided. He observes a recent shift where artists from fields like poetry and video are now approaching dance from their own perspectives, creating non-standardized movement works. Goumarre highlights the practices of Laurent Goldring, Bernard Lallemand, Christophe Fiat, and La Ribot as exemplars of this trend. The article is titled "Gestes/techniques : vidéo, danse, performance. Pour une esthétique de la posture" and was published in the September 2002 issue of artpress.
