SKILLS

Pionier Geist (Appell / Anrufung / Absturz)

  • Performance
  • Music
ca. 70 Min

What role has the varied and extremely contradictory figure of the pioneer played in the suppressed era of real existing socialism? How does it relate to the myth of the flexible and networking innovator and forerunner now used as a model in the time of neoliberalism? In what ways can this pioneer be used for an artistic subjectivity that exceeds exactly these social norms. In their concert-performance, the choreographers and performers Camilla Milena Fehér and Sylvi Kretzschmar consolidate their questions to the pioneering spirit into images of cool beauty that are as abstract as they are poetic. SKILLS enter unknown territory to find out how all of this has got such a hold on us.

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.
