Alan Lake
Chorégraphe
Alan Lake is a choreographer, performer, director and visual artist. He studied visual arts for five years (DEC and BAC in visual arts). He undertook and obtained his DEC technique in Dance-Interpretation in 2007 at l'École de danse de Québec.
It is with the accumulation of experience and a multidisciplinary practice that he now approaches gesture, devoting his daily life to dance. The aim of his work is to bring these disciplines together in a common space at the service of movement.
He founded Alan Lake Factori[e] in 2007, a multidisciplinary contemporary dance company based in Quebec City, where he developed his artistic approach at the crossroads of dance, film and the visual arts. In 2018, Alan Lake joined the "Artiste Associé" program of the Centre de Création O Vertigo - CCOV (Montreal) and is also an associate artist of La Rotonde (Quebec City). He presents his work as a choreographer in Quebec, Canada, Belgium, Mexico and the United States. At the same time, Alan Lake regularly acts as guest choreographer and teacher at various Quebec institutions, including UQAM's dance department, l'École de Danse de Québec and l'École de Danse Contemporaine de Montréal.
