What would it mean for choreography to perform as an exhibition? This question was the point of departure for Work/Travail/Arbeid. In response, Anne Teresa De Keersmaeker reimagined her piece Vortex Temporum for the radically different temporal, spatial, and perceptual conditions of a museum-like environment. The choreographer did not simply bring a dance performance into a new kind of space, but rethought it as a nine weeks long exhibition, continuously accessible to the public. The original choreography made for the condensed time and space of a stage performance was thus entirely reinvented so as to extend itself across a new time and space. This project transforms the conditions that have long been essential to dance and gives a new form to the rigorous choreographic writing for which De Keersmaeker is known. During Het Theaterfestival, Rosas, WIELS and Ictus will, once again, present three performances of the original nine-hour cycle.
Book launch Work/Travail/Arbeid
On Sunday 13 September, WIELS, Rosas and the Mercatorfonds will launch the catalogue of the exhibition Work/Travail/Arbeid. During this presentation, the choreographer Anne Teresa De Keersmaeker and WIELS director Dirk Snauwaert will talk about the publication and reflect on the project together with the Rosas dancer Michaël Pomero and Ictus pianist Jean-Luc Plouvier.
