Summary/Abstract: The programation of dance and performance in the museum and exhibition spaces is becoming a trend in the western discourse of contemporary art. Ephemerality is entering the monumentality, or dance is entering the museums and exhibitions spaces such as MOMA, Whitney Biennale, TATE Modern, George Pompidou and other cultural and art centres internationally. They become part of curated programmes, not being incidental or one off event. Museums have had performance programs in the past, but in fact now are not ad-hock event but curated programme since choreography is standing toward the conceptual fits in a museum context rather than a theatre, as some curators are commenting. This text will read different examples of opinions towards this trend, researching the preconditions for its development. The questions that this text will try to research are: whether this is a trend, or step in setting the foundation for the transdisiplinary approach development that would allow reformulation(s) of different aspects in the field of choreography and dance, as well as the institution. If correlation between choreography, dance and visual arts context can affect the reformulation of modalities of institution in culture and the art field, or would reproduce the power relations between the fields.
