- Abstract
It is always a question worthy to be asked that can music be displayed in the form of visual art, or do works that reflect reality have to be criticized? But is it feasible to transform court operas into dance operas? Will people accept this tradition activated by modern technology? Take the original police station in Hong Kong as an example, the Hong Kong government has repeatedly protested because they later transformed the building into a tourist attraction. Many audiences feel that dance opera cannot express the emotions of work as clearly and directly as musicals, but is this the case? Are there any ways to reconcile music and vision? Is proper innovation and creation detrimental to the inheritance of court opera? Many forms of art integrate, and performativity is one of them. It is to integrate exhibition and performance, with actors as artistic installations and exhibition as performance. Nevertheless, there is also constant controversy. This research is going to analyze the conflict between different forms of art.
