DANCE ON ENSEMBLE William Forsythe “Catalogue (First Edition)” / Jan Martens “Man Made” / Rabih Mroué “Elephant” (Premiere)
Part of “OUT OF NOW / DANCE ON Festival”
- Dance
One evening, one ensemble, three distinct styles: The DANCE ON ENSEMBLE presents highlights from its multifaceted repertoire and a brand new premiere by the Lebanese director and video artist Rabih Mroué. William Forsythe’s duet "Catalogue (First Edition)" for Brit Rodemund and Christopher Roman celebrates the dancers’ experience and demonstrates how time and space are constituted through movement.
“I’m trying to find a situation where everyone’s knowledge is valorised, or legitimised.” (William Forsythe)
“Man Made” by the Belgian shooting star Jan Martens shows all five of the ensemble’s dancers in hypnotic waves of never-ending movement and synchronisation. “A choreography that celebrates the ‘Arbeit’ of dancing and the possibility of tuning in with fellow humans, it shows how by doing and watching art, we try to become better human beings.” (Jan Martens)
The evening concludes with the premiere of Rabih Mroué’s new piece “Elephant”, his second for the DANCE ON ENSEMBLE after the celebrated “Water between three hands”.
