PROGRAM China Arts and Entertainment Group Ltd. China Arts and Entertainment Group Ltd. (CAEG) was founded in April 2004, and its two major subsidiaries China Performing Arts Agency (CPAA) and China International Exhibition Agency (CIEA) were established in 1957 and 1950, respectively.

As China’s only central state-owned cultural enterprise that has performance and exhibition business worldwide, CAEG has developed a nationwide market network of international performing arts, art exhibitions, and culture & tourism and theater operation, and set up branches in major cities in China and some European and American countries. It initially established an integrative operating system under the guidance of “Starting from China and going global” and is expanding its presence at home and abroad.

Founded in October 2016, the SRILT has now grown into an alliance of 107 large theaters and culture & art institutions around the world, 69 of which are from overseas. They serve as a platform for international cultural exchange and cooperation.

Equipped with international perspective and professional teams, CAEG plays a pivotal role in planning and delivering large-scale art festivals and Statelevel cultural events. Throughout the year, CAEG hosts or co-hosts many large festive events and major brand performances and exhibitions, including the ‘Meet in Beijing’ Arts Festival, the China International Chorus Festival, the China International Youth Festival, the ‘Image China’ performance series, the “Dances in China” brand projects,‘ Happy Chinese New Year’ festival, the Venice Biennale-China Pavilion, the Silk Road (Dunhuang) International Cultural Expo, the China Art Industry Expo, the Culture Exhibition Area in the

PROGRAM 唤醒沉在血液里的记忆 让淡去的印迹复现 在墨色中凝神 用身体诠释书法之精髓 以心灵面向无蔽之境界 ——刘琦 Awaken the lost memories deep in the soul Let the forgotten experience be re-animated Let the hues of ink gather your thoughts Let the spirit of calligraphy flow in your body Let your heart be shadeless and open to a boundless horizon – LIU Qi 作品介绍 About the Work 《临池舞墨》是广东现代舞团最受欢迎的保留剧目之一。 上阕《临池》提取出中国书法中甲骨、小篆、隶书、楷书、行草五种书体的行 笔特征、力道和神韵精髓，演化出各具特质的肢体动作。下阕《山水》将中国 山水画的精神追求移植到舞作中。以情致入微的体悟将宁静、超然、坦荡呈现 于舞台。释躁平矝而返观内心。 自2005年首演以后，舞团携作品巡演全球逾百场。刘琦和广东现代舞团凭《 临池舞墨》获得编舞、灯光设计、演出及制作的杰出奖项。 Beyond Calligraphy is one of the most popular repertoire of Guangdong Modern Dance Company.

Upon Calligraphy, Episode 1, is a poem of movements, which are developed from the stylistic essence of different Chinese scripts. It comprises five dances named after the five different script styles in the Chinese calligraphy. Since the debut performance in 2005, the work has had more than 100 performances all around the world. The work has also won awards for Liu Qi and the Guangdong Modern Dance Company on outstanding choreography, lighting design, performance as well as production. Episode 2 Ink Wash Landscape, pays homage to the spiritual essence of ink wash painting. The linear logic of development in the original work, which comments on the cold, emotionless mode of communication in the digital era, is resolved in balance and harmony between the water and ink.

The Washington Post describes it as “full of meditative grace, sharp, cutcrystal physicality and languid dignity.”
