The
Place
of Corpo
Grupo
Corpo
was
founded
by
Paulo
Pederneiras
in
1975
as
a
contemporary
dance
company, typically
Brazilian
in
its
creations.
Throughout,
Grupo
Corpo
has
been
guided
by
three
main
concerns:
the
definition
of
an
identity
linked
to
the
idea
of
a
national
culture,
the
continuity
of
the
work,
the
integrity
in
maintaining
self-imposed
standards.
Paulo
Pederneiras
is
the
general
director
and
is
also
responsible
for
lightin
Rodrigo
Pederneiras
started
as
a
dancer
and
became
choreographer
of
practically
all
of
Grupo
Corpo’s
work
as
of
1981.
The
Grupo
performs
annually
in
Europe
and
in
the
Americas.
Considered
the
Jiri
Kylian
of
Brazil,
Rodrigo
Pederneiras
brings
into
the
ballet
technique,
choreographic
structures,
the
liberty,
flexibility
of
modern
dance,
the
sinuosity,
and
the
complex
rhythmic
action
of
the
torso
pertaining
to
African
dance.
Its
group
is
considered
to
be
“South
America’s
sexiest
dance
company”.
Lately,
Grupo
Corpo
has
toured
the
world:
Kennedy
Center
in
2002,
Brooklyn
Academy
of
Music
in
2002,
Montréal
in
2002,
Théâtre
des
Champs-Elysées
in
2002
and
2004,
London,
Zurich,
Minneapolis
and
other
tours
and
they
are
booked
up
through
2006.
