Uesugi Mitsuyo Butoh Performance Life　Keio University Freshman Event 2019

我々は各々の試練と欲望を携え結集する。
踏むこと。打つこと。舞うこと。奏でること。ご飯ですよ。
— 上杉満代

舞踏家大野一雄に師事し、現在に至るまで極私的舞踏ソロの活動を続ける上杉満代の舞踏公演を開催します。

The Welcome Event for New Students began in 1994 with a Butoh performance by Ohno Kazuo at Hiyoshi Campus. The theme of that day was “heart, body, and mind” which has become an important concept at Hiyoshi Campus, with performances from representative Japanese butoh artists receiving a wonderful response every year. You can watch this event on YouTube.

Lecturer/Performer

Dancer: Uesughi Mitsuyo

YUKI met Hijikata Tatsumi for the first time in 1970. She took part in the foundation of Dai-Rakudakan in 1972. In 1975, she formed the Hoppo-butoh-ha with Bishop Yamada at the foot of Dewa-sanzan in Yamagata, where she pursued Hijikata’s Butoh, which held high demands of both mind and body, trying to make use of the northeastern climate and culture in her dance. She appeared in “Taka Zashiki” (1985) directed by Hijikata and “Ezomen” (1992) directed by Bishop Yamada. She was recognized as a Butoh dancer who could express the mind peculiar to the north Japan inhabitants. Since 1993, she has lived in Tsugaru, Aomori to create works expressing the spirit and culture of Jomon.
