The Brazilian-born, Albuquerque-based choreographer Vladimir Conde Reche is one of five acclaimed choreographers presenting work at The Lensic Performing Arts Center in Santa Fe on Saturday, Aug. 1.

Along with pieces by Zeitgeist Dance Theatre鈥檚 founder Francisco Gella and choreographers from Chicago, Los Angeles and Vancouver, 鈥淎n Evening of Contemporary Dance鈥� will showcase over 70 professional and preprofessional dancers who have come to Santa Fe this summer from around the world for Zeitgeist鈥檚 three-week dance residency program.

鈥淓ach choreographer sees collaboration in different ways, and each work brings that collaboration in, with different shades,鈥� Conde Reche said. 鈥淚n my case, I often start with a conversation, where I explain to the dancers 鈥� the artists who I鈥檓 going to be working with 鈥� where I鈥檓 coming from and how I would like them to draw on their personal experiences. As young people, they are often taken for granted, with people thinking that they have not had enough experience. But I want them to bring that sense of who they are to the stage.鈥�

The Zeitgeist trainees Conde Reche will be working with are between the ages of 17 and 24. Conde Reche, who has been teaching dance at the University of New Mexico for the past 18 years and working with Zeitgeist for around five years, said he enjoys mentoring young dancers in the early stages of their careers.

鈥淚 was young once, and I have had people who helped me through that process,鈥� Conde Reche said. 鈥溾�� And I am always learning. I think I鈥檓 learning as much from them as they could be learning from me.鈥�

For his new piece, 鈥淭he Straw and the Camel鈥檚 Back,鈥� Conde Reche expects the form of the dance to evolve throughout the rehearsal period.

鈥淩ather than beginning with fixed conclusions, the work embraces discovery, listening and collaboration,鈥� he said, 鈥渁llowing the experiences of the dancers, the realities of the present moment and the surrounding community to shape its development.鈥�

In addition to the preprofessional trainees, Zeitgeist鈥檚 residency is open to professional dancers, such as Madrone Matysiak, who was recently inducted into Zeitgeist鈥檚 company. Matysiak is one of seven dancers performing in Gella鈥檚 鈥淜apwa鈥� at The Lensic.

鈥淚t鈥檚 about shared identity,鈥� Matysiak said. 鈥淥ne thing that he talked about is how, even though the people in his piece are many different races, and we come from different places and different backgrounds, we have this shared identity of being dancers and dance-makers.鈥�

Gella, who is Filipino, wanted to create a work about the concept of 鈥渒apwa,鈥� which means 鈥渒indred鈥� or 鈥渇ellow being鈥� in Tagalog. As the choreographer explained in a written statement about the piece, 鈥溾�楰apwa鈥� invites audiences to experience a powerful truth: even in a divided world, we are never separate.鈥�

Matysiak is a choreographer and event producer as well as a dancer. She recently co-produced the Albuquerque Fringe Festival. But she said she is looking forward to just being a dancer for the next few weeks.

鈥淚 really love dancing, because I feel like I think with my body more than with my head, especially when I鈥檓 performing,鈥� Matysiak said.

She described how she 鈥渢hinks鈥� with her body when she鈥檚 rehearsing a new dance.

鈥淭here鈥檚 a conversation happening between the choreographer鈥檚 body and the dancer鈥檚 body. The way that a dancer sees the movement is maybe different from how the choreographer is feeling the movement, and it translates into the dancer鈥檚 body in a way that is uniquely theirs,鈥� Matysiak said. 鈥溾�� So, it鈥檚 special when those can coalesce. 鈥� I particularly love working in that way, because I feel like I鈥檓 able to channel the choreographer a bit in my own body.鈥�

Matysiak said Zeitgeist is one of the few independent dance companies in New Mexico that鈥檚 not associated with a school or a studio, and they put on some of the most ambitious productions she鈥檚 seen in the state.

鈥淭o have something that is so ambitious (as The Lensic program) 鈥� it鈥檚 really a huge producing feat and a choreographic feat. So, it鈥檚 really exciting to have a dance company in New Mexico that is really just 鈥榞oing for it鈥� in terms of scale and production values,鈥� Matysiak said.

Conde Reche called Zeitgeist a labor of love.

鈥淚t鈥檚 a labor of love to bring art to the forefront, where people can have a voice and where people can have an opportunity 鈥� to grow,鈥� Conde Reche said. 鈥溾�� And the audience 鈥� in this case, I mean New Mexico 鈥� is going to be able to benefit from the fruits of this labor.鈥�

Prior to the Aug. 1 dance concert at The Lensic, Zeitgeist will host a movement workshop at Aspen Santa Fe Ballet Studios on Sunday, July 19, an open rehearsal at New Mexico School for the Arts on Thursday, July 23, and a choreographers鈥� panel discussion at Zane Bennett Gallery on Saturday, July 25.
