LIKE ME MORE LIKE ME

dance
01—04.02.2012

In Like Me More Like Me, formerly known by its working title H:H, Thomas Hauert collaborates with American performance artist Scott Heron, a familiar face from the New York avant-garde scene. Although the two artists create very different work – Hauert is admired for his improvisation-based choreographic language while Heron makes singular performances layered with camp – they share a mistrust of social and aesthetic conventions, as well as a love of intense and innocent physicality.

To belong to a community is one of the deepest human needs. Having both started dancing as kids in their family living room, on opposite sides of the Atlantic, the two creators know how a private world can develop out of, or outside of, surrounding culture. Their encounter blithely rattles the opposition between uniqueness and “two-ness,” centre and fringe, body and mind, reason and feeling.
