Abstract

Wu Xiaobang is the pioneer and founder of Chinese new dance art as well as an outstanding dance artist, theorist and educator. Wu Xiaobang’s achievement was inseparable from his early artistic practice especially during the Anti-Japanese War and the positive influence of the Communist Party of China on him. During the Comprehensive Anti-Japanese War, Wu Xiaobang actively participated in the performances of anti-Japanese and national salvation and also came to Qujiang, Shaoguan, twice to give dance lessons and training. The creative practice in Qujiang for more than a year became an important time node for Wu Xiaobang’s creation and performance on his artistic path. During this period, Wu Xiaobang’s creative concept of dance and dance drama achieved a great change, reaching new heights in the combination of art and life, modern dance and traditional elements.
