Dance Umbrella

  • Michael Johnson
As part of Dance Umbrella 2013 Festival Free events: this was a rare opportunity to see live performance alongside paintings by Bosch and his contemporaries, inside the National Gallery, London, offering a new and enriched perspective on well-known works. Five choreographers created movement responses to the paintings over a 90-minute period.

Durational Dances was part of B Project, an artist-development initiative which invites European choreographers to research and create new dances inspired by Bosch. B Project is one component of the Bosch 500 Foundation’s major celebration of the painter and his work.
