Arcane Collective is a contemporary dance production company, producing and presenting work from a cooperative of international artists from different backgrounds. It was founded in 2011 by Morleigh Steinberg, a dancer and choreographer and Oguri, a dancer and choreographer from Japan.[1]
Their performance Cold Dream Colour was presented in 2012, as a homage to the important Irish artist Louis le Brocquy, the performance being inspired by his paintings.[2] Morleigh explained "He so often pays homage to different painters, and I thought, for his birthday we could pay homage to him."[3] The music was composed by Paul Chavez and performed by U2's The Edge with choreography by Liz Roche[4] Steinberg, the artistic director of the piece staged a solo dance as well as a duet with her sister Roxanne, wife of Oguri.[5] Excerpts from Cold Dream Colour were performed at the Guggenheim Museum's Works & Process series in New York in 2013 and Irish broadcaster John Kelly moderated a discussion of the work with its creators.[6]
Collaborating dancers include Cat Westwood, Boaz Barkan, Sherwood Chen, Joyce Lu and Dani Lunn and costume design by Mariad Whisker.[7]
