Exchange: Creation Lab

In this fourth edition of the CircusDance CreationLab, the focus is on the physical encounter of bodies: human, material, planet. Special attention is paid to the element of water, fluid states and movements that make changes of these states perceptible. Breno Caetano is known worldwide for highly physical, humorous, and visual creations with proximity to the visual arts in circus and dance. Under his artistic guidance, we can expect an inter-media production with a lot of fresh wind and pulsating energy from the future generation of circus and dance artists. A collective memory of a different kind, not to be missed!

How do we communicate and live together? Based on a shared understanding of togetherness, the individual is celebrated, imagined, invented and collectively staged.

The results in the form of filmic works were presented as a digital contribution at the CircusDanceFestival 2021 and discussed in a follow-up meeting between the project participants. They can be viewed in the University Cooperations section of the CDFthek.
