TO ALL EMERGING DANCE ARTISTS BASED IN BERLIN
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 5-20 January 2024. 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.
Calvin Klein’s inventive, humorous piece invites us to take a close look. It is a wonderful attempt to slow down our hyper-mediated world – if you allow yourself to be drawn in, it will reveal its great depth.
Calvin Klein is an artist trio that comes out of Berlin’s Flutgraben, a group of artists known for innovative work that has already spawned names such as An Kaler and Clément Layes. The rapture will be televised V was originally conceived for a gallery context. We present this work in the theatre to expand perceptions of choreography as stage art.
"The rapture will be televised V experiments with physical articulation of the ordinary and expresses the complexities of the mundane. Through music and movement – and while considering one’s distorted perspective of time in moments of apocalyptic crisis’ - critical issues are assessed clinically rather than sympathetically. Calvin Klein seeks to explore a world over saturated with sensation and sentiment." -Calvin Klein
