Abstract

In this paper we inquire about the forms and limits of the expansion of the notion of body in theWestern stage dance in recent decades. It deals with the transformation of writing in contemporary dance through the identification and comparison offour complementary aspects: the philosophy of the body in theory and choreographic practice, techniques of body awareness in the modes of formation and composition, dialogue between dance and other arts, and the controversy of an ontological paradigm where the body struggles with movement for being objet of the dance.
