 July 25 to July 26, 2025 / FRI 5 to 8 pm | SAT 10 am to 6 pm ACCESS TO DANCE - Salon & Symposium A Less Stable Universe Lenbachhaus (FR) und Tanztendenz (SA) Micha Purucker, DANCE ENERGY and dance as a counterculture in Munich in the 1980s 40 years ago - in 1985 - DANCE ENERGY was founded as a collective of various choreographers and dancers. Micha Purucker was one of them, who soon became the group's artistic director. Bodies in motion, in changing states - what do they perceive and how can they be perceived and experienced? These questions - and the associated socio-political dimension of aesthetics - continue to be of interest for Micha Purucker to this day. The choreographer, who has been awarded the Dance Prize of the City of Munich (2003), has created over 60 full-length productions for the stage as well as numerous installations, urban interventions and exhibition formats. As an artist, co-founder of Tanztendenz München and co-initiator of local and nationwide initiatives, he was a pioneer and is still a central figure in the Munich dance scene today. DAY 1 At the SALON (July 25), dancers and artistic collaborators recall the early days of DANCE ENERGY, working methods, music and spaces, the atmosphere in the group and in Munich. With: Jennifer Bury, Veronica Fischer, Sabine Glenz, Sabine Haß-Zimmermann, Hanno Kampffmeyer, Michael Kunitsch, Robert Merdžo, Micha Purucker, Hanne Weyh Moderation: Katja Schneider DAY 2 On the second day of the symposium (26 July), the discussions will be supplemented and deepened by lectures and the exhibition “Micha Purucker: Bytes from the Kitchen - Doing Dance and Art in the Eighties” at Tanztendenz as well as a film program. In her lecture "‘Day and night, lookin’ for love.' Munich in the 1980s", cultural scientist Simone Egger will focus on overlapping constellations between pop and punk, chic and political current affairs. Cultural scientist Konstantin Butz provides information on a practice that is resistant to the hegemonic mainstream, a subculture of extremes: “Pogo, slam dancing, stage diving: (counter) movements in hardcore punk”. Munich-based Bernhard Springer - artist, filmmaker and curator - will talk about subversive art and alternative concepts of life under the motto “Don't cry - work!” as a participant observer of the 1978 generation: Graffiti and new media (video), artists' groups and producers' galleries, children's stores and tenants' initiatives, alternative media and political protest movements. Micha Purucker will guide visitors through the exhibition he realized with Sofia Muñoz Carneiro, which exemplifies his concepts of body, perception and spatial experience and his approach to bodies, media and formats in several chapters. The exhibition will also be on display on Monday, July 28, and Tuesday, July 29, from 5 to 8 p.m. in Studio C at Tanztendenz, with Micha Purucker in attendance. A film program at the Monopol Kino concludes the symposium.
