The Communication Studies of China's Red Dance

Abstract

From the establishment of the Red Army in 1927 to the first two decades of the new century, the development of "red dance" for nearly a century has gone through a distinctive artistic development path. In the war years, due to the needs of combat, red dance has a strong political attribute and is an effective means of propaganda and ideological education. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, through professional construction and development, the aesthetic characteristics of red dance art have been highlighted, and the form of expression has developed into pure body language dance. The performance types include solo dance, duet, group dance, dance drama and dance poetry. After long-term development, red dance has formed a special style and aesthetic form, enriching the long-standing military dance of the Chinese nation, and leading the development direction of Chinese modern and contemporary dance. China's "red dance" presents the characteristics of the spread of three styles of military dance, national folk dance and modern dance.
