May 19 to May 25, 2013 International Choreographers' Atelier
CLOSE BY - Sous les pavés, la plage
> schwere reiter
Choreographers of the Tanztendenz München invite artists and choreographers from Germany and abroad to reflect about their roles as artists in the society they live in. Impulses from practice and theory hailing from different fields will be supporting this process. This edition’s subject matter will be the space, the other place, the different structure, in which artistic creation ideally takes place.
Does artistic autonomy exist only as an Utopia?
Project design
The last Choreographers’ Ateliers (in 2005, 2008, and 2011) dealt with all kinds of artistic role models (pirates, warriors, secret agents, and dissidents) – this time around the subtitle reads “Utopians and Tourists”. We are planning to conceive of this week together as one continuous performance, which is to take place on the premises of Schwere Reiter – including open air cinema, lectures, and practical exercises relating to the topic of Heterotopia.
Michel Foucault characterizes heterotopias as „real places — places that do exist and that are formed in the very founding of society — which are something like counter-sites, a kind of effectively enacted Utopia in which the real sites, all the other real sites that can be found within the culture, are simultaneously represented, contested, and inverted. Places of this kind are outside of all places, even though it may be possible to indicate their location in reality.“ Heterotopias unfold a difference vis-à-vis the remaining space. Extreme heterotopias are in this regard the illusionary space and the compensatory space. They possess the ability to unite several incongruous spaces in one place and to create a connection between them, where none seemed possible. Here, their own underlying structure of time plays an important role: „The heterotopia begins to function at full capacity when men arrive at a sort of absolute break with their traditional time.“
For the space of time of eight days five international choreographers/artists will be invited to focus together with the Munich choreographers on alternative spaces and places, while also conquering very concretely some places in the city with their presence. At a point in time when there is some debate in Munich about a Creative Quarter (Kreativquartier), the artists will formulate their own position regarding those spaces in which creativity can occur.
