Tere O'Connor's method is based on the reinterpretation of musical forms and concentrates on ways to deepen a personal choreographic voice. To facilitate a method for developing a “vocabulary” and to extract meaning from it, a series of questions are posed. These are based on the emotional range in the body, internal music, dramatic structure, history, culture, and the inter-relatedness of the elements in the work. O'Connor's desire is for the artist to internalize a system of problem solving based on his or her thought process and develop the ability to bring it into the realm of theater.
Tere O'Connor has been making dances since 1982, which were presented worldwide. He taught workshops in composition and modern technique at Tanzwochen Wien and at the School for New Dance Development, Amsterdam, and teaches regularly at Movement Research in New York City. In addition he has been a Consulting Artist for Performance Space 122. O'Connor has received various awards, among these two New York Dance and Performance “Bessie” Awards, and grants from the National Endowment for the Arts. |
