Tatsumi Hijikata (born March 9, 1928 - 1986) is the founder of new genre of mysterious dance performance art called Butoh from Japan. By the late sixties he had begun to develop a new dance, highly choreographed with stylized gestures drawn from his childhood memories of northern Japan home. It is this style which is most often associated with Butoh by Westerners.
