Time: 19:30 20^th August

Art Dirctor: Teng Aimin

Performance Group: Beijing City Contemporary Dance Company

Contemporary dance "National Colors" takes Chinese traditional Tai Chi concept (the blending of Yin and Yang) as the source for creation. Philosophical Tai Chi Diagram, consisting of three basic elements (point, line and surface), uses two points (black and white) and two poles (Yin and Yang) to reflect such natural law changes as "tamper force with mercy", "mutual generation and restriction" and "mutual transformation", that is, the future evolves from the pure and simple origin of life to competitions gradually and to destruction finally! Water and ink are used in place of Yin and Yang respectively, coupling the contradiction law of things.

Based on the main line of water (Yin) and ink (Yang), the dance drama presents the evolution from black-white to color and to perception of real life by men and women, that is, mutual possession. Only respect the development law of the nature can you enjoy the truth of beautiful life!
