After the Tempest
Anne Teresa De Keersmaeker / Meskerem Mees / Jean-Marie Aerts / Carlos Garbin / Rosas: Exit Above
Anne Teresa De Keersmaeker, who has significantly shaped and developed contemporary dance, is one of the most important choreographers of our time. With EXIT ABOVE, she returns to the Kampnagel stage after six years and presents a powerful and precise choreography that creates complex movement structures from simple movements and tells of a return to the potential of community.EXIT ABOVE is dedicated to one of the most pressing issues of our time, the destruction of the environment, and encourages us to reflect on our coexistence on a planet that is out of balance due to extreme weather and climate catastrophes. Twelve young dancers impressively embody the generational conflict and explore the tension between the romantic notion of wandering and the political potential of collective movement - when people walk side by side for a collective goalIn EXIT ABOVE, Anne Teresa De Keersmaeker combines the origins of her artistic work “My walking is my dancing” with the roots of Western pop music: the musical starting point is the song “Walking Blues” by legendary blues artist Robert Johnson, but the journey leads back to the 19th century with Schubert's “The Wanderer”. Together with Jean-Marie Aerts and the dancer and guitarist Carlos Garbin, the Belgian singer-songwriter Meskerem Mees has composed a series of variations and adaptations of Walking Songs, which will be performed live on stage.Dates
