"I called this piece IKIRU because all those dancers or artists I met or knew - like Pina Bausch or Merce Cunningham or Michael Jackson -Â are gone, but I am still alive and I can still dance. They give me the power to dance. Onstage, when I am dancing alone, all these artists are with me." Tadashi Endo.
