Mudam Luxembourg – Musée d’Art Moderne Grand-Duc Jean presents Anne Teresa De Keersmaeker’s groundbreaking choreographed exhibition Work/Travail/Arbeid. It will be performed by Rosas and the contemporary music ensemble Ictus in the museum’s Grand Hall on Saturday and Sunday, April 14 and 15, 2018. The performance is organised as part of the red bridge project, a new and ongoing cross-disciplinary collaboration with the Grand Théâtre and the Philharmonie, Luxembourg.
Belgian choreographer Anne Teresa De Keersmaeker has been exploring the crossovers between different art forms for decades. With her company, Rosas, she has revolutionized contemporary dance. Work/Travail/Arbeid was created in 2015, when De Keersmaeker reimagined her choreography Vortex Temporum in response to the polyphony of the eponymous masterpiece by Gérard Grisey for the radically different temporal, spatial, and perceptual conditions of a museum exhibition.
On Sunday, April 15, 2018, Elena Filipovic, director and chief curator of Kunsthalle Basel, will discuss with the public personal insights and share her experience curating the exhibition Work/Travail/Arbeid for WIELS Contemporary Art Centre.
During the exhibition, a workshop will give visitors the chance to work with members of the Rosas company, gaining access to the dance material of Work/Travail/Arbeid via a simple choreographic phrase taught by De Keersmaeker’s artistic assistant Femke Gyselinck. More
Originally created for WIELS Contemporary Art Centre, Brussels, Work/Travail/Arbeid has been shown at Tate Modern, London, Centre Pompidou, Paris, and MoMA, New York. It will be presented at the Volksbühne in Berlin from April 26 to 29, 2018. More
