Briefly

Rediscovering Lolita Danse, a Radical Parisian Dance Collective
"Lolita Danse was a laboratory for experimentation, and in 1980s France, the time was ripe: the post-1968 revolutionary spirit still fizzed in the air, post-punk movements held sway, musically, the New Wave was emerging."
"While respecting each person's identity, autonomy and expertise, the collective necessitated that each member transcend individual ego to create together."
"Hundreds of previously unpublished documents - notebooks, texts, photographs - retrace ten years of collective imagination, celebrating the freedom, passion and creative force that shaped the Lolita era."
Lolita Danse was a performance collective formed in 1981 in Paris, comprising ten diverse members united by a desire to challenge conformity in dance and life. They engaged in various artistic expressions, including films and theatre, during a vibrant cultural period in France. The collective's archives, now published, reveal their creative journey and the lasting influence of their work. The book highlights the freedom, passion, and innovative spirit that defined the Lolita era and its ongoing legacy.
