L’Explose | Danza Contemporánea

Colombia

The company was founded in 1991 in Paris and is known for fusing dance and theater into productions in which the universe of dance and movement bespeak human complexity. In 1996 the company moved to Bogota (Colombia ), where he incorporated the company formally, continuing with his work of making dance-theater a stronger concept with greater depth. The group was created in response to a particular need for expression, woven around the emotions rather than movement. The result is that their work involves crude and violent movements to express an encounter with reality, and rejects the coding of an intimate imaginarie in the society of the artificial.

In 20 years L´EXPLOSE has toured its important repertoire to Europe, the USA, Asia, North Africa and Latin America.
