One of the magnificent things about dance performances is the immediate and evanescent nature. Sadly, as quickly as the dance happens, it vanishes into the memories of the audience, dancers, choreographers, and production crew. Very few small, low-budget dance companies can present an archive of 20 years of video documentation.
Tango Con*Fusión would like to thank John Campbell as the founder of AlmaVideo, along with Peter Ivory, for this collection and their continued documentation of our dance projects.
Emblems of society’s conflicted feminine ideal, corsets figure prominently in fashion’s past and present. Dualistic in nature – they historically constricted the wearer to the point of broken ribs, yet even today are praised for their positive impact on posture. They bind the wearer to a near inhuman silhouette, yet consumers choose them for their sex appeal, often with S&M overtones. Light and innocent in some incarnations, they can also take on a dark, Gothic or steampunk sensibility. In Escualo, Tango Con*Fusión explores the corset as a symbol of manipulation – by forces both external and from within oneself. When and how does the ‘corseted’, the target of control, resist and break free?
