A Chinese Choreographer Goes Home
"Thirteen years ago Shen Wei was a dancer, a choreographer and the founder of the Guangdong Modern Dance Company, the first of its kind in China. He was a rising star in his nation but craved to know more about Western dance than he could learn there. His movements combine Eastern and Western ideas, drawing from Chinese opera, martial arts, Abstract Expressionism and Western Modernism." The New York Times 07/06/08
