Abstract
Taketeru Kudo was born in Sendai-city, Miyagi
in Japan. While studying French Literature at
Keio University in Tokyo, Taketeru also immersed
himself in the world of performing art and
discovered his passion for Butoh dance. He
studied under Koichi Tamano, who is a pioneer
of Butoh dance, and began dancing solo in 1992
and established his own troupe, Tokyo Gienkan
in 1997. Taketeru not only choreographs and
dances solo but also collaborates with artists
from various genres and holds workshops
internationally. His performance called “Full Moon”
won a Golden Mask award in Russia in 2013.
