A dozen pink and powdery blue balloons are tied together, anchored between the thighs of a dancer as she crosses the stage on four. Choreographer Yoram Karmi, artistic director of the Fresco Dance Company goes right to the heart of the core issue, and within the next hour, will dissect the ties between a person\u2019s own perceptions pertaining to his or her gender and social expectations\u2019 sphere as a result of it.<\/p>\n

(Fresco Dance Company) <\/em><\/a><\/span>YORAM KARMI\u2019S \u2018Genderosity.\u2019<\/span>Karmi\u2019s artistic niche remains in the realm of contemporary dance with high regard to traditional physical training, coated with theatrical components and underlined with specific, defined content.<\/p>\n

In a way, Genderosity celebrates an outlook post through the gay community\u2019s lenses, a courageous stance which is made possible by the growing acceptance of gender rights and a higher tolerance for gender\u2019s variety and complexity.<\/p>\n

Karmi also took a risk by choosing blue and pink balloons, a clich\u00e9 of its own, as a leading element with high visibility and constant presence, equal to that of the dancers. I believe he found 101 ways to use those props in ingenious ways, yet the more impressive ones were found in one unison section, when the balloons<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

hung high near the ceiling, and for a few moments formed an airy blue-pink cloud hovering over the heavier mass of the dancers below, echoing similar rhythms, as in a surreal dialogue.<\/p>\n

Obviously, there was a lot happening as a result of interaction of dancers and their props, endless innuendos, explicit options, as well as more comical exploitation, done with imagination and ingenuity. The choreographer left no stone unturned in this study to deal also with human interactions, and loaded Genderosity with mosaic-like detailed work that will cover the central theme and its variations from all angles.<\/p>\n

The Fresco dancers all look good, but the female dancers were stronger. Some were even better than that. This is the time to remind the company that the dancers\u2019 names in the program are just as important as that of the designers.<\/p>\n

Summing up the evening, one must see that Karmi managed to bring onstage a mixture of serious issues with some sensitive moments, along some wild dance celebrations, maintaining fine aesthetics, and never crossing over red lines.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
