A personal work of art, Rice is a collaborative production: film, sound, imagery and music lifting the choreography of Lin Hwai-min to new heights.
To celebrate the 40th anniversary of Cloud Gate Dance Theatre of Taiwan, its founder and choreographer Lin Hwai-min, created a new ballet entitled Rice. The ballet is divided into sections which are called Soil, Pollen, Sunlight, Grain, Fire and Water, and reflect the changing seasons with their ever repeated life cycles.
Honouring Lin Hwai-min with a Lifetime Achievement Award in 2009, the jury of the International Movimentos Dance Prize in Wolfsburg, Germany, said: "Lin is a foremost innovator of dance, who ranks with artists of the century such as William Forsythe, George Balanchine and Birgit Cullberg." The music ranges from traditional folk song to Ishii Maki, Bellini, Saint-Saens and Strauss.
