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 in them? What happens at the transitions ? And which active forces unfold in/on the body in its movement ? The process of perception leads from individual space to collective space. The space studies take place indoors and outdoors.

The basics of bodywork, improvisation and Butoh dance as well as performance practice will be taught.

Previous experience is not necessary.
