ABSTRACT
This chapter examines distinctive kind of thought, born in and through European dance since the mid-1990s, which has thoroughly transformed choreography and performance by reinventing performed relations between the body, movement, and time under the theme of 'problems'. The practice of this thought is rooted in the problematization of specific concerns within contemporary theater dance, such as the body-movement bind with respect to expression and form, improvization and processuality, or spectatorship. Most importantly and in a nutshell, its forte lies in introducing a method of creation by way of problem-posing, which merits philosophical attention. The chapter discusses the choreographic idea that constituted it in order to regard the historical dimension of the rupture of the organic regime. Ideas of choreography are inventions of the body and/or movement in performance as well as of time that are coextensive with the body and movement in performance.
