Instructions for beginners in knitting for a frenzy of wool and colour:

"Be anarchic with wool by using as many different colours as possible, for example, with wool leftovers. Treat the rules of traditional handwork casually. Don’t use fixed patterns. Find a balance between being precise and improvising, chaos und form, anarchy and conformity to rules. What is the purpose in deciding whether to use applied or freestyle knitting? In applied knitting, the finished product (a blanket, pullover etc.) is the purpose of the manufacturing process where as freestyle knitting begs the question: what’s it all for? The process of knitting (the interplay of wool and structure, and the frenzy of colour) is in itself purpose enough.”

TANZTAGE BERLIN is knitting away at the dance history of tomorrow and in its upcoming festival, it presents Christine Borch and Dani Brown – examples of how the body and physical activity can be made into rigorous concepts in choreography. Julian Weber and Márcio Canabarro produce poetical dance pieces linked to the visual arts while Ari Hoffmann and Antje Velsinger’s research focus is on sound, music and language. Willy
Prager finds his inspiration in current political events. Once again, we will be looking beyond the borders of Berlin and for the fourth time, we will present the exchange programme with Stary Browar Nowy Taniec from Poznan, in which young choreographic talents from Poland are shown. And for the first time this year, young Israeli choreographers are represented from HaZira’s upcoming talent programme, “New Dance Project”. The programme will be supplemented by installation works in the Kantine and Foyer, improvisations, the Zeitgenössischer Tanz Berlin e.V. Zukunftswerkstatt, and festival insights and warm-ups with Tanzscout Berlin. Once again, Agnes Benoit will be present with a bookstand for “Books on the Move” and undergraduates from the HZT (Inter-University Centre for Dance) will blog during the entire festival.

TANZTAGE BERLIN wishes you a colourful start to the New Year.
