Graduation Tour 2016 Programme 2

Fabrice Mazliah en Daniel Linehan

Once every three years students can enter the renewed PARTS Training Cycle. The first group started in 2013 and 35 of them are graduating this June. This three-year training 2013-2016 is concluded with a Graduation Tour, presenting five creations directed by invited choreographers and a selection of personal works directed by the students.

The invited choreographers are Daniel Linehan, Fabrice Mazliah, Eszter Salamon, Vera Mantero and Marc Vanrunxt.

Six Potentialities – Farbice Mazliah

The knowledge of a dancer does not only consist of facts and measures. It is in the first place physical. Fabrice Mazliah researches how this implicit knowledge can be shared with an audience and how this will produce something new. The piece is a part of a collection of works created around the piece In Act and Thought, created in June 2015 for and with The Forsythe Company.
Fabrice Mazliah (CH) was for many years member of William Forsythe’s Ballet Frankfurt and The Forsythe Company. He is a co-founder of the choreographer’s collective MaMaZa.

End-World Mosaic­ – Daniel Linehan

Inspired by Markus Gabriel’s book Why the World Does Not Exist, Daniel Linehan starts from the viewpoint that there is not one but many worlds. The non-existence of one single all-encompassing world is not cause for nihilism, but rather a source of freedom. Liberated from the idea of unity, Linehan creates a fascinating and attractive disorder.
Daniel Linehan (US), himself a graduate of PARTS, always looks for the border between dance and not-dance. This leads to unexpected links, contradictions and parallels between movements, texts, images, songs and rhythms.
