Wreck Beach Butoh | Kokoro Dance | Vancouver
Need to feel absolutely free from the excesses of society? Want to shed your clothes and be one with nature? There is one place in the Vancouver area that permits this freedom...Wreck Beach.
This weekend on August 11 and 12th, Vancouver's Kokoro Dance group presents its 12th ANNUAL WRECK BEACH BUTOH performances. Nudity for art's sake! Butoh is a contemporary form of dance from Japan that borrows elements from the traditional and western forms of dance. One striking feature of Butoh is the liberal use of white body makeup. At this event, 19 dancers "will shed their clothes and explore the majestic landscape of Canada's largest clothing-optional beach in two magical performances that embrace the challenge of performing in unpredictable weather and tidal conditions."
BUTOH PERFORMANCE AT WRECK BEACH
* Saturday, August 11 @ 11 am | Sunday, August 12 @ 11:45 am
* Performances are by donation and take place on Wreck Beach at the foot of the #4 Trail (west of the UBC Museum of Anthropology).
* Photography and recording of any kind is strictly prohibited.
