Isadora Duncan

The American dancer and choreographer Isadora Duncan, uncompromising pioneer of modern dance, embodies a new freedom, not only for choreographic art, but also for the condition of condition. Indeed, her tumultuous life, which made her a heroine, fascinated her time, probably contributing to the extraordinary influence of her name and her legend in the world. With her bare feet, her thin « Greek » tunics and her « free » movements, that is to say freed from any known technique, she imposed a new idea of dance that relies on invention, improvisation, and harmony of the body and spirit. As the result, each choreographer will have to define his own personal « language ».
