Eszter Salamon

MONUMENT 0.6: HETEROCHRONY / Palermo 1599–1920

Performance
Dance

Italian / With German surtitles / Understandable without language / approx. 100 min.

In a continuation of the “MONUMENT” series, the choreographer Eszter Salamon, together with 9 performers, connects traces of Sicilian musical archives, mummification rituals of the Capuchin Catacombs in Palermo and historical references to the Sicilian revolution of 1848. “HETEROCHRONY / Palermo 1599–1920” – a HAU co-production – imagines a continuum between life and death, the cohabitation of the living and the dead, and creates its own utopian figure: a dancing, acoustic body. By juxtaposing different historical times, practices and memories, “Heterochrony” also reminds us of past collective struggles and questions what forms of resistance or desire for transformation inspire us today. From the “MONUMENT” series, “MONUMENT 0.7: M/OTHERS” was presented during Tanz im August 2019.

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.
