무용의 기호현상에 대한 연구

Abstract

This study focuses on the fact that implicative meaning and aesthetic phenomena of dance art brought by mutual cooperative systems of dance is semiosis. The study reads the phenomena by introducing authentic semiological theory, which is a view that being a sign, dance is not only mere interpretant of meaning but also a 'symbol', an aesthetic code. semiosis in dance generates signs through signifying by signifiant and signifier. In the process of doing it, signs come to rotate endlessly in the network of relations of continual semiosis by denotation and implicative meaning, representing objects. Cooperative mutual relations regarding dance phenomenon with strong epic stories sometimes deliver meaning about types of characters. Semiological methodology, which analyze structure of dance phenomenon as well as the message the simple epic delivers, presents diversion to the image, ended in the combination with non-verbal language given by dance, that is the ideological image. A Symbol as an image of art creates mythological image with semiotic process, which is a union of a sign and the content of the sign by interaction between sign items ,such as icons, index, and symbols in dance phenomenon and continuous relations brought by dynamics of signifiant. These relations between aesthetic code and decoding provide signs of dance with representativeness, and it manages to explain the artistic territory where transposition beyond this world can occur. From the semiological view of this study, the study and extension of the territory of dance semiology is required. Although dance is significant enough with its current domain of signification and communication, if we associate with diverse humanities for its expanding into a field of more artistry, we will have more objective procedures for verifying a category called art and find a clear solution.
