Through building a chronology for dance in Portugal, PARA UMA TIMELINE A HAVER is a collective exercise in research and the signalling of markers relating to the development and dissemination of dance as an artistic practice in Portugal in the 20th and 21st centuries, focusing especially on the second half of the 20th century.
\nTaking place between 2016 and 2017, and accepting the present as a place of enunciation, it proposes the singular construction of a series of chronologies for contemporary dance in Portugal, relating significant main social, political, cultural, biographical and artistic events \u2013 as suggested by dancers, choreographers, critics, technicians, historians and spectators.
\nWith this exercise, the aim is to signal episodes which \u2013 by influencing authors, practices and institutions \u2013 gradually delineated the history of dance in Portugal, inserting them into a broader perspective of not only the transformations through which Portuguese society went through, but also the discourse on choreography (and what dance is or could be as an artistic practice), in order to glimpse tensions, key moments and emblematic episodes.<\/p>\n
