In 2025, Dance Reflections by Van Cleef & Arpels is supporting the Conservatoire National Supérieur de Musique et de Danse de Paris for the transmission and recreation of boléro un, an excerpt of the piece trois boléros by Odile Duboc.
The transmission of repertoires that have influenced choreographic creation worldwide is one of the pillars of education at CNSMDP. Whether through the recreation of pieces by iconic artists or invitations to major choreographers of our time, the Conservatoire is committed to preserving this heritage.
Offering a program based on Odile Duboc's (1941-2010) work of creation and transmission seemed an obvious choice. These two themes underpinned the career of this artist who trained leading dancers and choreographers of today's scene.
"The word 'transmission,' although relatively new to me in its application, has become essential in my life as a teacher. […] Over the last 10 years (I've been 'teaching' for almost 40 years), I've come to realize to that my entire life as an artist has been about transmission. Passing on my values, my principles, my artistic beliefs. I do not teach them. I transmit them using my body and creative thinking... By introducing the term 'artist' above, I'm attaching 'transmission' to the status of creator. […] I see transmission as a vital part of my life as a dancer and creator."
(Odile Duboc, July 2008)
