O Samba do Crioulo Doido

Calixto Neto / Luiz de Abreu

dance
performance
29—30.09.2023
De Kriekelaar

Luiz de Abreu, currently one of the sensations of the São Paulo Biennale, lets the young Brazilian dancer Calixto Neto perform his iconic piece O Samba de Criolo Doido. De Abreu created this piece in 2004, in a Brazil plagued by racist and homophobic violence. Dancing naked in silver glittery boots, all the cliches about the repertoire of Black Brazilian artists are exotically and erotically represented and de(con)structed.

How a falling star lit up the purple sky [+10]

Jeremy Nedd and Impilo Mapantsula

performance
09—10.11.2023
Les Halles de Schaerbeek

How a falling star lit up the purple sky is a dynamic visual poem that proposes a paradigm shift, away from the Western cinema genre’s habitual gunfights, vilification of indigenous people and claims to ‘undiscovered’ land. Jeremy Nedd and Impilo Pantsula give life to new stories where nature rather than humankind dominates the scene.
