Rhythm is a dancer

Sa, 2 Sep 2023, 7 pm + 8 pm
// Performance
Bauhaus Museum Dessau, Mies-van-der-Rohe Platz 

The point of departure for this performance was the so-called movement choruses and the gymnastic movement of the working classes of the 1920s. The historical sequences of movements are supplemented by contemporary demonstration practices and translated into a shared choreography. The rhythm of work, machines, and bodies come together on the street and as a crowd shape urban space.
