Angelin Preljocaj (b. 1952) began studying classical ballet before turning to contemporary dance, which he studied with K. Waehner. In 1980, he went to New York to work with E. Rommett and M. Cunningham, after which he resumed his studies in France with the American choreographer V. Farber and the French choreographer Q. Rouiller. He then joined D.
