Failure, a connection, a performance
Events happen very fast, in a totally interlinked way, that makes me wonder if it all had been scripted and I am simply following that script.
16.04.15
. started and intensive live art- body in performance course and one of the texts I was given to read were various accounts on the theme of the body by members of the performance group Goat Island. It is discussed, in these accounts, imitation as a process of generating performance material. For instance, taking an existing dance piece (Pina Bausch's choreographies are mentioned) and copy the movements. The realisation that the performers (not dance trained) would never get the movements right and the idea of staging a failure is valued by the group, in that it represents inability and provides the performers with fragility and unstable possibilities.
25.04.15
. attended an audition for a place in Boris Charmatz's Roman Photo piece to be performed at the Museé de la danse at the Tate Modern in May. The piece is a recreation of every picture in David Vaughan's Merce Cunningham: Fifty Years (1997) as a speed-up version of Cunningham's work. Performed by amateurs (not professional dancers), Charmatz is interested in the idea of re-creating something fake that may or may not succeed. While recreating one of the pictures I sprained my calf muscle stopping me to continue the audition. I was not called for the rehearsals.
