Every new year, the Tanztage Berlin is not only the city's very first festival, it has also established itself nationally and internationally as an important platform for emerging dance artists since its founding in 1996. The next edition of Tanztage Berlin will once again take place under the artistic direction of Mateusz Szymanówka. The festival is currently planned for 5-21 January 2023 - however, the form as well as the exact date will depend on the constant reassessment of the pandemic. The festival offers emerging dance artists based in Berlin a framework for their new productions and revivals. The programme of the last two editions can be found at: https://tanztage-berlin.sophiensaele.com.
In Still Lives, things speak without serving their functional origin. Everyday objects move themselves and us as if they were objects and subjects at the same time: beyond any intention and meaning they appear in qualities that you - like a child - perceive only if you assemble obsessively fragments of your environment and forget the world. The installation shows familiar phenomena in different time-compositions as they transcend their human controllability.
