Gothic Belly Dance Performance (2008) DVDrip



Stark…sublime…intense. The phenomenon of Gothic Belly dance or “Raks Gothique” is a multitude of poetic visions born out of the Goth or Gothic subculture music imagery and fashion and expressed in the language of Belly dance.Modern “Belly dance” is an amalgam of historical dance styles coming from both East and West. Its diverse vocabulary allows the dancer to experiment with the widest range of creative movement musical trends and cultural elements. A century after its arrival in the West the art of Belly dance is emerging as a new world of unconstrained creative experimentation. No longer bound by its ethnic origins it is one of the fastest-growing and most artistically-open contemporary dance forms.”Gothic Bellydance” incorporates many Belly dance styles and motifs: Cabaret Tribal Fusion modern dance echoes of Gypsy dance Flamenco Asian and Indian dance–all called to express the darkness of the unknown and the mysteries of life death and eternity that have inspired Goth philosophies and lifestyles.This first of its kind groundbreaking collaborative project brings you the work of innovative and uncompromising “dark fusion” artists including a number of the recognized pioneers of Gothic Bellydance.
