摘要

舞動空間-台灣當代劇場舞蹈的空間表現

中文摘要

劇場所形成的特殊體驗場所，是經由舞蹈設計者、舞者、舞台設計者、燈光師、所有表演工作者……，共同經營出的一種視覺、聽覺，與感覺的整體感官經驗。自一九五O年代開始，「台灣劇場舞蹈」乃由數位赴日習舞歸國及中國舞蹈家來台孕育，在台灣蘊釀萌芽，至今己呈現多元且向國際推展的局面。這幾年來，隨著表演藝術逐漸走入街頭的腳步，我們可以發現台灣舞蹈界與戲劇界紛紛探出「藝術」的觸角，不約而同地關注在「空間出走」的議題 – 此時著重點已不僅於「表演」的行為表現，而是呈現於觀眾之前的全貌。換句話說，劇場表演經由與之相關的劇場元素(包括影像、音效、節奏、燈光、色彩、服裝、舞台、環境…等)，影響表演的成效，也就是藉由劇場每一環節的結合度形成所謂的劇場力量。為了跳脫過去「鏡框舞台」在形式上對於演出與觀賞的限制，「黑盒子」劇場孕育而生，而為了拓寬基層觀眾的普及度，演出場所的範疇又從「黑盒子」裡回歸到人民的生活空間或是山野環境。本研究本持著「舞蹈」與「空間」互動的意圖，研究者從空間觀察的角度對台灣劇場舞蹈的創作表現提出主觀的研究論述。

首先，研究者嘗試以記憶回溯的方式，對「台灣劇場舞蹈」之歷史脈絡作一簡單的敘述與分期，試圖透過舞蹈與戲劇相關的空間理論以及台灣劇場的演變，尋找出台灣劇場舞蹈的前景影像，以舞蹈在空間上思考的特殊性為主軸，交互架構出台灣劇場舞蹈在創作上的空間思考，之後，透過舞蹈表演與空間互動的案例，尋找台灣劇場舞蹈創作較具空間變革傾向者，經由歷史理論之分析依據、現象觀察，以及編導者與設計者的訪談、事件回溯、文獻資料的參考，進而詮釋創作個案在空間上的思考，以反觀舞蹈所屬的活動空間。本文將簡述舞蹈與空間的互動關係，然後研討台灣一些舞蹈表演藝術家們如何在劇場的舞台裡建構出一場屬於台灣劇場舞蹈之空間美學，在不同空間中呈現不同區域之場所特質及意象。同時，研究者根據上述議題，在此推展出一種環結相扣的論點:劇場的特質，是在於它是表演者與劇場互動所譜下的空間情境，而劇場舞蹈的發生，則是強勢推動了編導者對於劇場藝術的整合能力。再者，劇場場域經過舞蹈的虛靈特質亦轉化了其制約的場所精神，在其歷史脈絡上更拓展了其文化深度。研究者期冀透過此一現象的研究，提出對台灣劇場舞蹈更多的空間反思，進而間接推動舞蹈與環境協同互動的可能性，重構台灣本土藝術文化的都市意向。

The Dancing Space - Spatial Expression of Contemporary Theatrical Dance in Taiwan

Abstract

The unique ambiance of the theatre is an overall sensory experience constituted by visual, audio perceptions and emotions that are collectively created by the choreographer, dancers, stage designer, lighting technician, all the performers and the audience among others. In the 1950s, several dancers trained in Japan and China first introduced the art of Theatrical Dance in Taiwan, and today it has evolved into diversified and international development. Over these years as performance art progressively extends to the streets, it can be observed that Taiwan’s dance and theatre communities are inadvertently synchronized in their concerns on the issue of ‘space’, initially from the framed stage to the black-box theatre, and therefore returned to our living space or nature environment. Focusing on the interactive-play between dance and space, the writer examines the performances of Taiwan Theatrical Dance from the perspective of space and proposes subjective research theory.

First, through retrospective study, the history of Taiwan Theatrical Dance is recounted and distinguished into phases with the attempt to re-enact its history, gyrated on the unique quality of dance to space by thoughts, to construct relevant creative processes on space relations through dance and theatre related space theories and the transformation of Taiwan theatre. Then, cases of dance performance and space interactions are examined to locate those emphatic or suggestive of revolutionary space thinking. Bases of historiography, observation of phenomena, interviews with choreographers and designers concomitant with recalling events and relevant literature are applied to interpret individual creative cases’ space thinking, in order to examine the activity space of dance. This study proposes to outline the relationship between dance and space, address how Taiwan dance artists form the indigenous space aesthetics for the stage, and the site-specific characteristics and metaphysical manifestation in difference spaces. Based on the theorizing, the writer provides a link point, it is inferred that the characteristic of theatre lies in the space scenario created by the interaction between the performers and the theatre, while the occur of Theatrical Dance predominantly motivates and enhances the choreographer’s ability to integrate stage art. Moreover, the field of theatre physical constraint of it's “Genius Loci” is transcended by the illusion, spiritual and emotional intensity of dance that ultimately extend its cultural significance in historiography. Through studying such a phenomenon, the writer seeks to present wider space-reflection on Taiwan Theatrical Dance , indirect promoting the interactive coordination of dance and environment in reconstructing the urbanization of Taiwan local and culture.
