Skin Contact

  • Performance
  • Dance
approx. 130 mins.

Two protagonists occupy the centre of the room: their movements are nuanced and articulate as they slide between naturalistic, athletic, animalistic and digital layers. Brooke Stamp and Juan Pablo Cámara, singular artists who have been working with Adam Linder for several years, embody themselves and others in on an unfolding journey. Glitchy and anticipatory – in an immersive, enigmatic stage setting – their (non) human relations are revealed with desire, rejection and empathy. 

Following on from his most recent exhibitions “Shelf Life” (MoMA 2020) and “Hustle Harder” (MCA Australia 2023), internationally renowned choreographer and dancer Adam Linder brings his approach to performance installations into the black box of a theatre for the first time: “Skin Contact” is a minimalistic study on the strange intimacies of dance.

Latest information for arrival

There is currently a construction site on Hallesches Ufer between Wilhelmstraße and Möckernbrücke underground station. There is a divided replacement route for pedestrians (right) and cyclists (left), which are separated by a yellow ground line. The carriageway is narrowed to one lane.

Travelling to HAU2 via U Hallesches Tor:

If you are coming from Hallesches Tor underground station, you will have to use an alternative footpath from Wilhelmstraße / Hallesches Ufer junction, which is separated from the carriageway by a construction fence – the actual footpath is currently closed. Please note: the alternative route is also used by cyclists. Pedestrians should keep to the right. We therefore currently recommend that visually impaired or blind visitors come to the HAU with an accompanying person.

Arrival HAU2 via U Möckernbrücke:

When you leave Möckernbrücke underground station, please stay on the footpath on the canal side until you reach Hallesches Ufer / Großbeerenstraße junction – the opposite side is currently closed due to construction work.
