ABSTRACT

Ge Wang's narrative group dance works refer to the group dance plays created by dance choreographer Ge Wang from 2002 to 2018, which have obvious narrative purposes. Director Ge Wang gradually formed a creative path with narrative as a typical style in group dance choreography, and gradually matured in narrative group dance works. The creative techniques and aesthetic experiences of narrative dance plays such as "Father", "Chinese Mom", and "Autumn Moon in the Han Palace" have inspired the thinking on the creative style and theme selection of contemporary narrative dance works in China. Its unique narrative text structure and sincere and simple emotional expression meet the dual needs of ordinary appreciation subjects for dance and narrative, and also lay the foundation for his later realistic dance drama creation with creative consciousness and personal style. The creative rules of Ge Wang's narrative group dance works under the consciousness of "tragic aesthetics". The technical thinking and aesthetic consciousness that can be borrowed for contemporary creation of narrative dance themes are conducive to promoting the exploration of new artistic values and charm in narrative dance works, and also beneficial for dance choreographers to draw experience from it, forming distinctive creative styles and consciousness.
