learn: weekend workshops

Dance concrete – At the intersection of improvisation and Butoh

© Sergej Horovitz

Facilitator: Anna Barth

Location: exploratorium berlin, Saal

Inside ::: Outside ::: Between ::: Space

How do our concrete senses perceive the different spaces – physical – imaginary?
How does our sensorium orient itself within them? What happens at the transitions?
And which active forces unfold within the interplay of body and space within and without the body? In its movement … in it´s capability of transformation?

The process of perception leads from individual space to collective space.

Fundamentals of bodywork, Improvisation and Butoh as well as performance skills will be transmitted.

No previous experience necessary.
