La figura de compañía de danza: experiencias en contexto del bailarín de danza contemporánea y su situación laboral

Abstract

This work offers an approach at the field of work within the dance sector in Bogota and Colombia in relation to the practice of the professional performer in contemporary dance considered from the notion of dance company. In that sense, this monograph registers some characteristics and possibilities of the dance company as a workspace and reflects on the dancer's work in context and the repercussions that politically, economically, socially, corporeally and artistically are involved around the critical thinking of dance employment. Thus, it sets a precedent for future studies and possible transformations that are required in the country as a way to dignify the profession.
