- Abstract
The paper analyzes modern dance in phenomenological and semiotic aspects, the dance being the result of merging of modernism traditions and technological innovations of postmodernism. It systematizes comparative materials, concerning the modern dance phenomenon, attempts to unify definitions, characterizing this phenomenon, provides a self-dependent analysis of the specificity of choreographic means of expression peculiar for “Chunky Move”, an Australian dance group. This group’s creative work has not been described in the Russian art history. The author comes to the conclusion that modern dance was born as a logical continuation of the modernist style dance and incorporates the elements of dance cultures from different historic periods. In search of new artistic forms, the dance uses modern art-technologies that turn a descriptive and expressive potential of contemporary dance into a limitless one
