  • Opening Remarks
    Opening Remarks Lawrence Adams was Amy Bowring’s revered mentor; his example has guided and encouraged her to tackle, with determination and purpose, assorted pursuits in dance. As Research Co-ordinator at Dance Collection Danse, Amy has been working with the organization, on contract, for five years. Many of you may know Amy through some of the projects in which she has been involved, and also as founder of the Society for Canadian Dance Studies which can boast a solid and active membership under her direction. First introduced to Dance Collection Danse in 1993 as a student undertaking research through York University’s dance programme, Amy’s passion for dance history triggered her interest in becoming seriously involved with DCD. After completing her BA in Fine Arts, Amy earned an MA in journalism from the University of Western Ontario. She is copy editor for The Dance Current magazine, has written various dance articles and encyclo- pedia entries, and is researching and writing a book on the 1948-1954 Canadian Ballet Festival phenomenon. And, to add more ingredients to the mix, she is a whiz at the computer! As Dance Collection Danse undergoes its planning process for upcoming and future activities, you can expect to see Amy’s involvement with DCD increase. To work with someone who is dedicated and skilled is a blessing, but to have someone on board who is also mindful and gracious is the best. The Editoral Committee and Board of Directors of Dance Collection Danse have dedicated this issue to Lawrence Adams, whose contribution to Canadian dance makes him deserving of ..

  • Soviet Bodies in Canadian Dancesport: Cultural Identities, Embodied Politics, and Performances of Resistance in Three Canadian Ballroom Dance Studios
    SOVIET BODIES IN CANADIAN DANCESPORT: CULTURAL IDENTITIES, EMBODIED POLITICS, AND PERFORMANCES OF RESISTANCE IN THREE CANADIAN BALLROOM DANCE STUDIOS DAVID OUTEVSKY A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY GRADUATE PROGRAM IN DANCE STUDIES YORK UNIVERSITY TORONTO, ONTARIO May 2018 © David Outevsky, 2018 Abstract This research examines the effect of Soviet Union era indoctrination on dance pedagogy and performance at DanceSport studios run by Soviet migrants in Canada. I investigate the processes of cultural cross-pollination within this population through an analysis of first and second generation Soviet-Canadian ballroom dancers’ experiences with cultural identity within the dance milieu. My study is guided by questions such as: What are the differences in the relationship between national politics and dance in the Soviet Union and Canada? How have Soviet migrant dancers adapted to the Canadian socio-economic context? And, how did these cultural shifts affect the teaching and performances of these dancers? My positionality as a former Soviet citizen and a ballroom dancer facilitates my understanding of the intricacies of this community and affords me unique entry into their world. To contextualize this study, I conducted an extensive literature review dealing with Soviet physical education, diasporic identities, and embodied politics. I then carried out qualitative interviews and class observation of Soviet- Canadian competitive ballroom dancers at three studios in Ottawa, Toronto and Montreal. The research conducted for this dissertation revealed various cultural adaptation strategies applied by these dancers, resulting in the development of dual identities combining characteristics from both Soviet and Canadian cultures.

  • Oct 2013 Ballet Plasters
    Artifact of the Month – October 2013 Ballet Chalkware: 1950s Kitsch Anyone who has ever taken ballet lessons is probably guilty of forcing porcelain slippers or ballerina ornaments on their teachers as end-of-year gifts. The world of ballet has not been immune to the commercialization that has resulted in kitschy merchandise to line the walls of studios and living rooms. At Dance Collection Danse, an army of plaster ballet dancers was lovingly collected by founders Lawrence and Miriam Adams because they felt it was important for the collection to demonstrate how the public outside the profession views dance. Though depicting positions that evoke ballet technique, most of the figurines would certainly receive a stern glance from any répétiteur. Known as chalkware and made with plaster-of-Paris, the figures are often garishly coloured and embellished with swirls and flowers, or are mounted on decorative metal grids. I’m Amy Bowring, Director of Collections and Research at Dance Collection Danse. I welcome you back to another edition of Artifact of the Month after a brief hiatus during which we moved our headquarters to a new space. We now have a larger research centre and a gallery for exhibitions. We hope that you will visit us at our new home. Now back to the Artifact-of-the-Month. Mid-twentieth-century chalkware was often mass produced for home décor or as carnival prizes until carnivals replaced the delicate plasters with sturdier stuffed animals as winnings. Many are hand-painted and, though mass produced, have a unique quality. Canadian manufacturers include Devonware, Winnipeg-based FavorWare and Girotti Sculptured Art in St.

  • Artifact of the Month Feb 2013 V3
    Artifact of the Month – February 2013 Lawrence Adams and The Brick A simple red brick – such an innocuous artifact and yet the story that it represents is key to both Canada’s dance history and the history of Dance Collection Danse. This acrylic brick was constructed by Lawrence Adams in 1974 as part of a media installation at the A Space Gallery in Toronto called Mr. and Mrs. Adams Present. Lawrence collaborated with his wife, Miriam, and their show included an audio journey, sculptures of bricks, a slide show, photography and video dance. Bricks were a recurring theme in Lawrence’s art work in the 1970s. When the Adamses founded the group 15 Dancers in 1972, Lawrence gave a performance at the debut concert where he angrily kicked a brick wall to a sound track of a Richard Nixon speech. In another show, he built a brick wall accompanied by Mahler’s Fifth Symphony. In 1975, Lawrence built a 10x30- foot Styrofoam brick that he floated down Ottawa’s Rideau Canal. And in the work Another One, he recited the virtues of the brick with images showing tiny people walking and riding bicycles on gigantic bricks. I’m Amy Bowring, Director of Collections and Research at Dance Collection Danse. Twenty years ago, I came to Dance Collection to do research and had my first encounter with Lawrence Adams. An imposing figure with substantial greying sideburns, he invited me in and brought me the box of materials I had requested. While I was focussing on the details of a house program, I suddenly heard him say, “Who are you?” There was something in the way he posed the question that made me realize that I could not give him a standard answer.

    EXPLORING THE LIFE AND WORK OF GLADYS FORRESTER: A CANADIAN DANCE EDUCATOR, 1936-1998 PAMELA RAE STEEL A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY GRADUATE PROGRAM IN DANCE STUDIES YORK UNIVERSITY TORONTO, ONTARIO JANUARY 2020 © PAMELA RAE STEEL, 2020 ii ABSTRACT The current body of literature regarding dance history in Canada is informative and expanding, focusing predominantly on professional schools, dancers, choreographers and companies. There is much yet to be said, however, regarding individual dance educators, their instructional practices and influence on the subject of Canadian dance evolution and culture. This research investigates one mid-twentieth century, Toronto dance teacher, Gladys Forrester, expanding the body of knowledge specific to her career and contributions within the context of Toronto (and Canadian) dance history. Through archival and oral language research methodology Gladys Forrester’s professional dance and teaching praxis comes to light. This study describes issues and lays bare existing specific “phenomena” in order to gain greater insight into historical events (Sagor 156). The goal to understand Gladys Forrester’s dance practice and pedagogical philosophy enables an exploration of the Toronto dance culture of her time, clarifying her legacy and influence on today’s dance community. In addition, research aims to represent the “human experience” of the subject in such a way that “readers or viewers” are drawn into the “interpretive process” of making meaning based on their own reading and reality (Cole and Knowles 11). The exploration of materials provides insight into the life and work of a forgotten voice and presence in history.
