Martin Böttger fly Looking at Shirley/ Christoph Winkler. tanz:digital II [Making Of]

Dreharbeiten Christoph Winkler + Deutsches Tanzfilminstitut Essen D 13.10.2022

“Looking for Shirley” is a project by Christopher Winkler as part of tanz-digital II. Our team produces the Making Of and interviews the winner of the 2022 Dance Prize in Essen. As a tireless artist and researcher, the German choreographer is interested in exploring the points of contact between dance and politics.

 

Within the framework of tanz:digital II, the German Dance Film Institute Bremen is building a bridge between the motivation of the realising artists and the circle of users focused on with it. In concrete terms, this means that “making ofs” will be created for about 10 individual projects, which will prepare potential users, whether they are tech-savvy or not, for what to expect if they want to entrust themselves to one of the many new offerings.

Filmstill INNER SUSPENSION (2). With Susanne Linke in Essen-Werden Tanzhaus Züllig

Dreharbeiten Susanne Linke / Deutsches Tanzfilminstitut Bremen Essen-Werden /Folkwang Universität D 29.9. bis 3.10.2022

 

Masters are truly great for what they pass on to their students: they leave traces that settle over time, becoming footsteps that others can walk in the future. The team of the German Dance Film Institute Bremen documented the Inner Suspension training programme developed by dancer and choreographer Susanne Linke at the Tanzhaus Züllig of the Folkwang Universität Tanz. The aim is to record and pass on this foundation of her way of working. An intensive experience with the great choreographer and her closest collaborators. Accompanied by Professor Henrietta Horn.

 

 

Point de Vue Point de vue/ cie. toula limnaios. tanz.digital I [Making Of]

Dreharbeiten Berlin D 20.9.2022

 

In the Point de vue project, part of the tanz:digital series, cie. toula limnaios uses live stream technologies to expand perception and transcend the everyday boundaries of reality. Cameras, integrated by 360° recordings, dance with the performers on stage to create an immersive viewing experience for the audience. Digital media are no longer a mere technical support, but real creative tools, and the choreography on stage is translated into an autonomous audiovisual art format.

(Deutsch) Dead code must be alive/ Brigitte Huezo. tanz:digital II [Making Of]

Dreharbeiten Wuppertal D 12.10.2022

Virtual reality can help us rethink the way we approach our bodies, allowing us to overcome societal prejudices and stereotypes. In the project Dead Code Must Be Alive, performer and choreographer Brigitte Huezo, with the help of valuable collaborators, imagines a virtual space where, interweaving dance, graphic art and cyberfeminism, the body can express itself freely, without imposed models or gender labels.

 

In the context of tanz:digital II, the German Dance Film Institute Bremen is building a bridge between the motivation of the realising artists and the focused circle of users. In concrete terms, this means that “making-ofs” will be created for 10 individual projects, which will prepare potential users, whether they are tech-savvy or not, for what to expect if they want to entrust themselves to one of the many new offerings.

Der schwarze Spiegel/ Katharina Groß. tanz:digital II [Making Of]

Dreharbeiten Dresden D 2.9.2022

 

Can virtual reality be an opportunity in children’s education? In Der schwarze Spiegel, one of the TANZ:DIGITAL II projects, the TAFI Team followed a class of students from the 116. Oberschule in Dresden during a special art workshop: interacting with a VR installation, between play and reflection, the kids are able to create a dance piece together with dancers from the Landesbühnen Sachsen – who are not physically present, but only through their digital avatars. Conceived by the TMA Hellerau under the supervision of media teacher Katharina Groß, the young students learn to deal with new technologies in a non-passive, creative and free way.

Virtual Sureallity/ bodytalk. tanz:digital II [Making Of]

Dreharbeiten Deutsches Tanzfilminstitut Bremen Düsseldorf D 1.9.2022

Virtual reality technologies are often used to create alternative dimensions; but what if instead we used them to give substance to something fragile that we already possess, such as our memories? In the Virtual Surreality project, the members of the “bodytalk” collective (Yoshiko Waki, Rolf Baumgart, Marcus Bomski) asked various dance experts what they considered to be the most significant moments in the history of dance; they then traced these moments in the archives of the Deutsches Tanzfilminstitut, and reenacted them interactively with a team of four dancers. The results of the reconstruction are compared with the personal memories of the people interviewed, who watch the performances with VR glasses: past and present are intertwined in this ‘surreal reality’, and what has been is not really lost, but can return to dance.

Dreharbeiten Neustrelitz D 25.8.2022

The Beyond Lightscapes project takes virtual reality research to a previously unexplored level in the world of dance. The PMD-ART Productions collective, composed of Marcus Doering, Lars Scheibner and André Bernhardt, has in fact devised a technology that makes it possible to map and actively follow the dancers in real time: the video therefore does not take place in a separate dimension, but is attached to the dancers, it follows them and adapts to them, like a real costume made of light. The dancers’ movements give life to magnificent scenographies and suggestive visual effects, leaving us to imagine all the possibilities that an artistic communication between man and machine can open up.

Geboren werden ist das erste Exil. Denn das Leben auf der Erde ist eine ewige Diaspora. / To be born is the first exile. For life on earth is an eternal diaspora
Dreharbeiten ProdÁrt Hafenmuseum Bremen D 19.8.2022

We are made up of the places we have passed through, the encounters that have enriched us, the people we have met and changed, even imperceptibly, the trajectory of our lives. This seems to be the heart of the piece “5 Minuten Heimat”, directed by Fabián Aimar and choreographed by Günther Grollitsch: to make us understand that migration regards not only individuals who move from one country to another, but indeed it represents the basic condition of human beings. We move, we grow, we respond to desires and needs, and these desires and needs sometimes take us far from home. The team of the Deutsces Tanzfilminstitut filmed the premiere of the performance in the spaces of the Hafenmuseum in Bremen: the dancers are migrants with and without disabilities who, for the duration of the show, seem to reconstruct on stage the homeland they have lost, or have not yet found.

 

ProdArt e.V. was founded in 2021 due to the mutual interest of the artists in their creative approaches. ProdArt artists understand diversity as a guiding principle for social and individual action. Diversity does not demand the adaptation of the individual, but promotes the opening of society – and thus a basic attitude that recognises each person as valuable on the basis of their individual characteristics and abilities.

 
With its work, the association wants to work towards the creation of favourable conditions for living, learning and working together, focusing on the equal participation of people with mental, physical, psychological and sensory impairments and/or chronic illnesses as well as different cultural origins and sexual orientations in social-cultural and artistic life.

Direction and concept: Fabian Aimar | Performance: Diene Abdoulaye, Doris Geist, Sakura Inoue, Ulrike Knospe, Estefan Vega Leon, Beno Novak, Caline Weber, Sergey Zhukov | Choreographic accompaniment: Günther Grollitsch | Production: ProdArt e.V. | Supported by Landesverband TanzSzene Bremen.

If the body could speak/ Robert Wechsler. tanz:digital II [Making Of]

Dreharbeiten Palindrome Dance Company Weimar D 13.08.2022

“If the body could speak”, what would it say? This is the question Robert Wechsler, choreographer and director of Palindrome Dance Company, asked himself when he designed an installation that generates sounds as soon as a body moves over a special carpet. An inclusive work that allows people with disabilities to dance and produce sounds, but also a poetic exercise, in which with just a few movements we can become a waterfall, a guitar or a bird rising into the sky, overcoming with imagination the limits imposed by the body. The magic carpet exists, and not only in fairy tales.

 

The German Dance Film Institute Bremen builds in the context of tanz:digital II a bridge between the motivation of the realizing artist:inside and the thus focused circle of users.

Nele Buchholz im Interview. Filmstill POSITIONS:DANCE #5 ACCESS. Films by Burkhart Siedhoff

Dreharbeiten Dachverband Tanz Deutschland Bremen, Berlin, Köln u.a. D 1.8.2022 - 30.01.2023

 

 

“Inclusivity’ is now a central concept in the world of contemporary dance: but what exactly does it mean?
From a collaboration between the TAFI team and Burkhart Siedhoff of Dachverband Tanz, these interviews with some dancers with disabilities tell us how the world of dance can open up to different bodies, and poetics.

 

The symposium Positions:Dance #5ACCESS

What development must there be in German (contemporary) dance so that everyone has access? What impulses are needed so that we do not equate professional dance exclusively with protonormalistic body images and movements? Can cultural policy give impulses so that dance does not just open a door here and there for people with disabilities, but that the whole world of dance is open to them – with all the support and freedom for artistic development?

Together with artists, organisers and politicians with and without disabilities, we would like to discuss structures and funding so that people with disabilities have sustainable access to dance. We had originally planned this year’s symposium within the framework of the German Dance Prize from 13 to 15 October. In discussion with artists and cultural actors with and without disabilities, we developed the idea of leaving the usual format of a three-day tightly scheduled symposium and choosing a decelerated and more sustainable format with regard to the negotiation of the topic.

The 5 modules of the symposium will take place online and will each be dedicated to a focus of the theme ‘Access’, from dance education to questions of professionalisation and transnational perspectives.

Masters are truly great for what they pass on to their students: they leave traces that settle over time, becoming footsteps that others can walk in the future. The Deutsches Tanzfilminstitut team went to Berlin to document the “Inner Suspension” training programme, developed by dancer and choreographer Susanne Linke. The aim is to record and pass on this basis of her working method. An immersive experience with the great choreographer and her closest collaborators.

Dreharbeiten TANZ Bremen Schwankhalle Bremen D 12.5.2022 um 19.00 Uhr

 

Two dancers of two generations. But SEE ME! does not care about age distinction. The duet by Tomas Bünger and Sergey Zhukov does not seek a divide or even competition, but an interested approach. “Look at me!”, the title says, as if someone were asking for attention. The dancers show facets of themselves, their preferences. This strikes a chord in the other person, something like agreement – yes, me too, but a little differently; and a coexistence emerges. A feeling of not being alone. A living room with an armchair, sofa and lamps areenough for their little shows. As if they were spending a quiet evening and had an infinite amount of time. Music is played, music of longing. No television. So the images remain their own. With the clothes they wear, the trousers and pumps, with tumbling around, drifting, floating, with falls, too, and with flights.

 

TOMAS BÜNGER, co-founder of TanzKollektivBremen, was a long-time member of Tanztheater Bremen. SERGEY ZHUKOV from Kazakhstan studied in Essen at the Folkwang Hochschule and danced as a guest with the Tanztheater Wuppertal Pina Bausch, among others. In 2021, the two began to research the topic of queer identity in dance-choreografisch. SEE ME! premiered in early 2022.

Ein wildes, wundervolles Manifest des Feierns. / A wild, wonderful manifesto of celebration.
Dreharbeiten TANZ Bremen Theater Bremen D 11.5.2022 um 20.00 Uhr

Art wants, art should, art may, it must! It spreads and becomes loud when a dance performance is called ART ATTACK. With this group piece, the experienced duo Niv Sheinfeld and Oren Laor from Israel illuminate a relationship: that of the society, perhaps represented by the audience, with the art and with the artists. The performers pose and run, tumble, dance and entertain so that the sparks fly. Dynamism! Variety! Eyes open! Music drives into the limbs and memory.

“We want to praise the aggressive movement, the fiebrige sleeplessness, the running step, the somersault, the slap in the face and the punch in the fist”, wrote Filippo Tommaso Marinetti in Manifesto of Futurism in 1909. Manifestos play a crucial role in ART ATTACK, written by artists of different professions. None of them has the last word, and what is serious and what is not keeps the attack in the balance. “We must stop despising desire,” demanded Valentine de Saint-Point in the 1913 Lust-Futurism counter-manifesto.”

DanceBremen

 

NIV SHEINFELD was a dancer and choreographer for Kibbutz and Batsheva Dance Company, among others. OREN LAOR studied acting and drama at Tel Aviv University. They have been working together and touring worldwide since 2004. The quartet ART ATTACK premiered in Tel Aviv in April 2021.

Video-Produktion Dachverband Tanz Deutschland/ NEUSTART KULTUR Bundesweit D 2022

“With tanz:digital, the umbrella organization Tanz Deutschland, in cooperation with dance archives, production houses and the model projects funded within the project, is pursuing the goal of making dance a virtual and immersive experience and presenting it online as part of the NEUSTART KULTUR program.

With tanz:digital, dance artists*, dance ensembles and institutions of dance (venues, archives, dance schools, mediation projects, etc.) are to be strengthened in the medial presentation of artistic productions.” Dachverband Tanz Deutschland

 

The German Dance Film Institute Bremen has made it its task in this framework to build a bridge between the motivation of the realizing artists:inside and the thus focused circle of users. In concrete terms, this means that “making ofs” will be created for about 10 individual projects, which will prepare potential users, whether they are tech-savvy or not, for what to expect if they want to entrust themselves to one of the many new offerings.

 

The Making Ofs will follow the highly unique production process of each of the selected projects on one day of filming, making the choice of technical, aesthetic, and possibly educational means accessible to a wide audience in a film of about 10 minutes about each project. Interviews with the artistic directors and other project participants will complement the film report.

 

The German Dance Film Institute Bremen will accompany selected projects as part of “tanz:digital II”

Dreharbeiten TANZ Bremen Theater Bremen D 10.5.2022 um 20.00 Uhr

“Cemeteries are gardens. Something grows. Someone dies. “Everything returns to the earth,” we are told at one point in this multi-voiced performance GRAVEYARDS AND GARDENS. Canadian dancer and choreografin Vanessa Goodman created it with New York-based musician and composer Caroline Shaw. The premiere was in January 2021 (online due to pandemic). Vanessa Goodman takes the solo role in the space, which is defined by a round of antique lamps, like heirlooms, side by side with green plants in earthen pots and technical equipment, old and new. Cables. Connectedness. The sounds have a life of their own. Are they placeless? Sea, song, organ, piano, violin, clacking and snapping, speech. They point to their sources, where they were recorded, and they click something in the brain of the listener. Bach, Chopin. Return. Some sounds are also made on stage, feeding the floating web of traces in the air. In addition, the dance that hears the grass grow and becomes more violent, as if nudged by gusts, like echoes or like mechanically switched, click, click. This is how remembering works.” DanceBremen

 

Pulitzer Prize winner CAROLINE SHAW works for films, for music ensembles, dance companies, opera houses and releases her own CDs.

UNTITLED I Eine feine, genaue Studie über Einzigartigkeit. the dance current // CONTAINER … erforscht Erbe, Kultur und Widerstandsfähigkeit. Vanessa Goodman
Dreharbeiten TANZ Bremen Theater Bremen D 9.5.2022 um 20.00 Uhr

 

UNTITLED I
“A picture of a man. But the picture alone doesn’t do it, so he has to be active. And being active means wanting to get better. Faster. In whatever. So repeat! What the dancer François Richard performs in the solo UNTITLED I and Andrea Peña worked out with him is a tirelessness in what is actually senseless activity. This figure on stage constructs movement phrases out of swings, jumps, rolls, bends, and it runs; or is it itself built, guided, laid down and raised up? As if this muscular, fleshy being had no personality, was only a surface, the title calls it “Untitled”. The “I” behind it, says the choreographer, is an “I” for “I”. For it is, after all, a human being. “We speak of being human in our own way with this work”. TanzBremen

 

As a trained industrial designer, the Canadian choreografin Andrea Peña is interested in cross-genre work, in the relentlessly recurring movement sequences of everyday life shaped by objects, and in vulnerabilities. Colombian-born, she was first a dancer in major Canadian companies, founded her own label ANDREA PEÑA & ARTISTS in 2014, and has since won several awards.

 

CONTAINER
“She is never alone, but is the only person on stage. Canadian choreographer and dancer Vanessa Goodman’s solo CONTAINER unfolds the relationship of a person, a woman, to her inside and to an outside. It seems to be a struggle with expectations. It dances Andrea Peña, who stands there in her boots like a defensible Super Woman; she strides forwards, backwards, forwards, she is buffeted, bent, struggles through a matter that presses against her body, invisible. Frees herself – almost. Paths of light open up to her, crossroads too. But like a forbidding pointer, such a bar of light threatens her. It swings. Sharp scythe blade. A Yiddish good-humour song frames the solo: “Chiribim Chiribom”. Its cheerfulness gives the dancer the rest. The end. Beginning.” DanceBremen

 

VANESSA GOODMAN, artistic director of Vancouver-based company ACTION AT A DISTANCE DANCE SOCIETY, worked as a dancer after graduating. The 2013 Iris Garland Emerging Choreographer Award enabled her to produce her first full-length piece as a choreografin. The works are meant to reflect the human condition and use dance to break down contemporary experiences, she writes about her company.

Wir glauben ans Destabilisieren. Andrea Peña & Artists
Dreharbeiten TANZ Bremen Theater Bremen D 8.5.2022 um 19:30 Uhr

 

“When everyone is sitting around, tugging at clothes or jumping around, as if to get the circulation going, and then one is just standing, then one more is standing, all upright. Later, all of them. In expectation. In readiness. This is the beginning of the show. The dancers now receive and do as told. In the three-part 6.58: MANIFESTO by Canadian choreografin Andrea Peña, it is different announcements or voices and moods to which they submit. And anyone who has ever taken a dance class knows the “Five, six, seven, eight!” command. Whether numbers, tones, beats or waltz tradition, they take the decision from the seven people here on stage. In the process, repetitions, sequences, pairings emerge. No stories. Only the bodies are exhausted. But already they are stretching their arms again, strutting, bending, kneeling.” DanceBremen

 

ANDREA PEÑA, a native of Colombia, worked in Canada as a dancer with Ballet BC and Les Ballets Jazz de Montréal, among others, studied industrial design and founded her own company ANDREA PEÑA & ARTISTS in Montréal in 2014. As someone who lives in two cultures, she’s interested in the in-between spaces, she says. In them, she wants to dig, “and show on stage the relationship between the known and the unknown.”

Dreharbeiten TANZ Bremen Theater Bremen D 7. 5.2022 um 20.00 Uhr

“In DOG RISING, Clara Furey explores the invisible. What is between the lines, she expresses with and through the body. That which borders on the known, which thus becomes the only supposedly known. If something is continuously shaken, it could change. Or does something rhythmic, something lasting emerge in the pulsation? Furey awakens a very own, inner force that does not turn against anything, but simply proves its own existence, places it in space and draws paths in it. Permanence and change, both are possible, and yet the dance seems so easy, as if everyone could simply join in. What exactly is to be read in the lines of the three performers, who differ, approach, resemble and drift apart, is left to the viewers.”

TanzBremen

 

The emptiness fascinates her, writes CLARA FUREY about DOG RISING, which premiered in May 2021 in her native Montréal, Canada. Trained as a musician and dancer, she first worked for choreographers such as George Stamos and Peter Jasko. Her first group choreografie of her own was COSMIC LOVE in 2017.

 

DOG RISING she developed together with the two dancers Be Heintzman Hope and Winni Ho. The music was composed by Tomas Furey, Clara’s brother and working partner.

Dreharbeiten TANZ Bremen Theater Bremen D 6.5.2022 um 19:30 Uhr

“How does change actually happen? This was the question Victor Quijada pondered about his first choreografie for a large cast – after 14 full-length pieces and numerous short ones. Then, at the end of 2018, in Montréal, Canada, the home of his company RUBBERBAND, he released EVER SO SLIGHTLY; the French version rhymes, “Vraiment doucement” (Really Soft).

In pandemic times, it’s good for recognition: the unravelling of emotions and the disintegration of positions once decided. The ten dancers form a kind of society that sometimes moves together and light-footedly masters balances, sometimes frays into groups, finally into individual elements that lose their hold. The contrast is formed by gentle tones in the encounters, in the willingness to help, in the release of airy centrifugal forces. The action is musically accentuated by Jasper Gahunia and William Lamoureux, who play an impressive selection of electronic and amplified instruments on one side of the stage. EVER SO SLIGHTLY earned huge cheers when it ended Vancouver’s long theatre closure in October 2021.” DanceBremen

 

VICTOR QUIJADA grew up listening to hip hop in Los Angeles and, after dance training and engagements as a dancer, developed his own method, which he named after his ensemble RUBBERBAND , founded in 2002. It combines floor-based urban dance with partnering and contemporary ballet.
