In celebration of International Dance Day, Dance Outreach Coordinator Anna Haltrecht, will show the recent work of Chinese-Canadian dancer-choreographer Wen Wei on ArtSpring�s big screen. This will include his solo �One Man�s�� and his group pieces �Three Sixty Five� and �Unbound�. Anna will also talk about Wang�s life of growing up in China and how he came to be one of Canada�s top choreographers, winning many prestigious prizes to create his highly inventive dance compositions. Wang�s precise direction seamlessly meshes classical Chinese dance, traditional ballet, and contemporary choreography. This m�lange of styles results in an incredible body of work that is stripped, suggestive, edgy, and full of invention. This free event is sponsored by ArtSpring, Made in BC-Dance on Tour, The Dance Centre, Dancer Transition Resource Centre-BC Office and the Canadian Alliance of Dance Artists/BC Chapter.
