2024 Festival Danse et Arts: Couleurs du Silence

Couleurs du Silence #5 | 2024

20 & 21 juillet • Festival Danse & Arts à Réveillon 61400 Basse-Normandie

La Maison du Butoh Blanc, Normandy

«La Maison du Butoh Blanc» was a name that Masaki Iwana, a butoh artist and film director (1945 – 2020 – www.iwanabutoh.com ), gave to his artistic world.  His studio was at his residence in Normandy, France — now called La Salle de Danse La Perrotiere.  However, friends still continue to call the place «La Maison du Butoh Blanc» in fond memory of Masaki Iwana.     An association for the arts was also created in the same name, «Association La Maison du Butoh Blanc» in his legacy.
