Abstract

The present study intends to present aspects of the work of the Austrian choreographer Johann Kresnik in relation to elements of Paulo Freire's thought, aiming to reflect on art/dance as a way of pronouncing the world. Among the main theoretical references that support this reflection are Shaffner's (2013) study on German expressionism, Freire's idea of the pronunciation of the world (2015a; 2015b; 2011, 2005) and Berté's study (2020) on the play Frida Kahlo, 1992, by Kresnik. This set of reflective elements makes it possible to question dance in its traditional forms and to think about it in its connection with the artist's sociopolitical context, structuring itself not as an illustration of reality, but as a reaction of its creator to it. In this way, it is possible to interrogate and envision possibilities about an art/dance that asks, that is done and is seen as a pronunciation of the world.
