Whereas, a radical artist slightly differs from the initial meaning as artists convey topics that might be deemed as controversial or confrontational or even sometimes provocative into their works. The aim that a radical artist is looking for is to make the audience informed about things going on in society or controversial topic that might not be spoken about in their day to day life. Radical Artists are in some ways opening up doors in the audiences minds to make them think in other ways that they maybe never thought about to begin with. Radical Artists use a lot of imagery during their works to get across the controversial or confrontational messages to an audience. The entire meaning of a radical artist is to divert from the normality and tackle problems through art.

Linking back to the original definition of the meaning radical, a radical artist uses the idea that there needs to be a political and social change and uses it to their advantage to create a piece of art.

But, a radical dancer steers away from the normality of what dance is and explores ideas of what can be created when you are thinking radically instead of being literal.

For example, Pina Bausch steered away from the ballet dance style and created her own version of dance that might have been deemed as controversial at the time but ultimately hers. Bausch broke away from the normality of just one style and decided to fuse them together and focus on the style that is known today as modern dance. She is deemed a radical artist as she focused outside of the box and created work that she believed would change everybody's view on confrontational or controversial subjects.

As of today, Pina Bausch is still portrayed as a Radical artist as she broke away for the ballet style and decided to create a form of dance that would be shown as different from the structure that ballet is as an art form.

This would of been deemed as radical as she decided to show the public something that they have never seen before and broaden their outlook into what can become of not only the dance industry but the public too.

Bausch's outlook is deemed as radical during this as her focus on violence and equality between men an women will have made the public have a lot of radical opinions on what she was doing.

Especially during the time of the critics having judgemental options of women in the performing arts industry Bausch faced a lot of backlash.

Nowadays, Bausch's work is still deemed as radical but is also used as an inspiration.

The reason that I believe this piece of choreography is facinating is that I like that fact that Bausch is tackling issues that would of been seen as radical during her time. This reconstructed work modernised her choreography whilst still focusing on the key elements that make Bausch's choreography hers.

By bausch being this radical artist, the dance industry would not have evolved and choreographers and dancers would not be thinking as radically as they should be.

This research allowed be to learn valuable insights in Pina Bausch work and techniques which I will be fusing with own style as she focuses on methods like improvisation to create a base. Bausch is a radical artist and changed the dance industry with her inspiring work.

Think back to all of the impacts she had on the industry and how that affected the way everything is deemed as of today.

Back myself up with actual knowledge that would be helpful for the chosen topic by being clear and upfront.

Show all of the research that I have learnt and revised.

Remember some of her growing up history incase I am asked some basic knowledge. Like the fact she was born in Soligen Germany during the 1940s and had training from Kurt Jooss and Julliard growing up.

Speak about her methods and techniques that influenced her like her use of improvisation and uncomfortable movements.

conclude myself with a straight forward point how this all links to Pina Bausch being a Radical Artist
