ICONS INSPIRE
Featured Choreographer of the Month
Johan Inger brings a distinctive Swedish flavor to contemporary dance -- it isn’t easy to pinpoint the specifics, but the honesty, humanity, and humor shine through. Classically trained, he gravitated swiftly to contemporary dance as a high-profile performer and later choreographer with Nederlands Dans Theater. His works, contemporary dance with a classical edge, and recently including highly successful narratives, are in the repertoire of companies across Europe and the USA.

Question of the Season

-
WHO INSPIRES YOU AND WHY?
Your Answer?...CLICK HERE - Allison C. - Isadora Duncan has a profound impact on me both as a dancer and a choreographer.
- Tomohito S. - Myself. I am still trying to find out about myself and in that process, I get inspired to choreograph.
- Vlad A. - I think what inspires me mostly is not so much the PERSON, but the WORK. Sometimes, I see a wonderful piece by an unknown choreographer and I think it is great that the work carries a name and not the other way around.
