1993

Artistic Director: Amos Hetz
Producer: Diana Shoef

The search for a direct connection to dance was, from the first festival onwards, presented through two main directions: movement notation and improvisation. In this festival, we presented another approach: the different ethnic dances,which are a deep source of inspiration for dance creation.

John Cage was one of the most influential musicians of the 20th century. His compositions are an inspiration and encouragement to our work. In this festival two dancers presented pieces with his music.
