NO ['RAIT] OF SPRING ± A TANZFONDS ERBE PROJECT

In No [’rait] of spring, Josep Caballero García examines females roles in German dance history from the perspective of the memories of former male dancers. In doing so, he emphasizes finding a personal path to reconstruction, which explores the relationship between memory and copyright, as well as the physicality of choreography beyond gender. This choreography focuses on personal memories regarding the solo of the Chosen One in Pina Bausch’s Sacre.

In combination with this performance, an advanced teacher training by Gitta Barthel as well as a video-lecture by Heide-Marie Härtel and Irmela Kästner is offered.
