Assignment Guidelines<\/b><\/p>\n
During these extraordinary times of social distancing and isolation due to the pandemic caused by COVID-19, renown dance artist, Anne Teresa De Keersmaeker has invited people to engage with her seminal 1983 work<\/span> Rosas danst Rosas<\/span><\/i><\/a> (a shorter version of the chair section, Rosas, can be found<\/span> here<\/span><\/a>). This invitation is similar to the Re:Rosas project she launched in 2013 when she invited anyone to create their own versions of the dance, following a plagiarism case with Beyonc\u00e9 (see additional resources at the end of this document).\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n For this assignment, you will follow De Keersmaeker tutorials to learn the choreography and then create your own version of the dance.
