Abstract

Jaka Bombač writes about Masterwork for Six Dancers, a dance performance by Emese Cuhorka, Csaba Molnár and En-Knap Group, modelling itself on the Bauhaus philosophy and the Triadic Ballet that explores the ways in which the body sheds cultural symbols and social meanings. The author wonders if the performing procedures associated with the Triadic Ballet and other avant-garde forms have not themselves become a convention. He concludes that the semiotic logic of the post-industrial world is completely different from the semiotic logic of the industrial world which, he believes, makes it unclear whether the performance subverts conventions or merely repeats them.
