Fresh from Berlin: a crystal new generation of choreographers showing their works while hosted by their Amsterdam peers. In a yearly exchange with SNDO (School for New Dance Development Amsterdam), graduate students of HZT (Hochschulübergreifendes Zentrum Tanz) Berlin will show projects and ideas they have been working on in the context of their studies. Having spent three years together, they have been shaping each other and their artistic work through what the American philosopher Donna Haraway has named a process of “constant becoming with” — and they have become pretty good in it. Now, the future lies bright ahead with all its promises and doubts.
They would like to share this moment with you; curious to hear what you think; eager to discuss questions raised.
All theories are at a point of convergence (Marc).
We are having difficulties in our body (Emma).
We halt and look at dead fish (Didi).
There’s a man who belongs to the future (Nir).
A house in Poland (Kasia).
We are nude, just because (Cécile).
A drop of blood fell into your mother’s coffee (Julek).
We actually have to decide the way beforehand (Stine).
It’s either the 80’s, or the Renaissance (Liselotte).
Some slept as a cure, some escaped (Tabea).
Someone is pouring liquid flowers into the lake (Asaf).
I am disappointed you didn’t think I was Gene Kelly (Renen).
As house for performance our doors are open for different generations of performance and dance makers to show their work and for the audience to meet them. The encounter between local upcoming talents and their colleagues from the international field is one of the essential exchanges that contributes to a fruitful working environment. Veem House for Performance is therefore happy to welcome the exchange between the choreographers of SNDO and HZT Berlin.
The Keynote lecture by Joe Kelleher on Friday eleven September is also part of this program.
A Drop of Blood in Your Mother’s Coffee
Over the course of two nights, we, the graduate students of HZT Berlin will show projects and ideas we have been working on in the context of our studies. Having spent three years together, we have been shaping each other and our artistic work through what the American philosopher Donna Haraway has named a process of “constant becoming with” – and we’ve become pretty good in it. Now, the future lies bright ahead with all its promises and doubts.
We would like to share this moment with you; we are curious to hear what you think; we are eager to discuss our questions.
