Kazuo Ohno
Butoh Performance
10/17-18 Rune Kodaira Large
Hall Special Stage
Although no such title actually exists, Kazuo Ohno
would merit the title of "National Treasure of Butoh". At over 90
years old, Ohno will grace the audience with 30 minutes of the
pureness of his art on the stage at the Large Hall of Rune Kodaira.
There will be a post show discussion with the artist.

Waguri, the direct successor of the late Tatshumi
Hijikata, the master of butoh, will dance to music of metal
percussion performed by Masaru Soga. Inspired by the history of iron
and the human race, Waguri attempts to lead our soul through a
journey from the world in the core of the earth to the surface of it
and beyond it to the world of air.
