Bhoomika
presents
February 23, 2010 Bhoomika (Delhi) presents its new
production:
This dance is an artistic impression
of readings of Jataka Tales of the Buddhists. In the original version,
the tales are over 540 in number and are written in the format of evolutionary
cycle of Buddha’s previous lives. However, the tales touch upon a range
of issues of its times - ecology, animal world, human relations and wisdom
stories. The choreography, instead of depicting specific stories, has images
and impressions of reading these tales, and elucidates underlying meaning
to several common ideas that run through the narrative.

For information:
Bhoomika Creative Dance Centre is a premiere national performing arts organization that has been in the forefront of infusing a new spirit in Indian dance since its inception more than three and a half decades ago. Initiated by a group of progressive artists, the centre evolved a dance company known for innovative and experimental choreography that has attracted critical attention in major festivals in India and abroad. Core to success of Bhoomika has been the contributions of renowned choreographer, dancer and its founder-director Narendra Sharma who passed away in January 2008 after a brief illness. Today, Bhoomika’s well-established repertory has modern dances, ballets and dance-dramas of Narendra Sharma, along with fresh works of younger choreographers like Bharat Sharma, Tripura Kashyap and Sangeeta Sharma. |
