Dance Day is a initiative by Flemish and Brussels dance organisations to make a broader public more aware of contemporary dance and thereby spotlight Belgium’s vigorous dance culture. Dance has always been closely associated with the history of the Kaaitheater – it’s in our DNA. The programme takes a look at the range of dance today: from virtuoso dance to performance art.

Pulse Constellations

Gabriel Schenker

dance
02.10.2023
Kaaistudios

In this fascinating dance solo, Gabriel Schenker deconstructs and reconstructs the musical web of John McGuire’s electronic composition Pulse Music III. He explores the boundary between the scientific and the organic, between the digital precision of electronic music and the analogue imprecision of dance, and between the danceable and the audible.

Thomas Hauert / ZOO

Kaaistudios

In his new solo, Thomas Hauert dances to various different versions of Monteverdi’s baroque madrigal Si dolce è’l tormento and to 12 Madrigali by Salvatore Sciarrino. For Hauert, this musical poem about impossible love symbolises the tension between longing for an ideal and understanding the tormenting truth that the ideal will remain out of reach.

Flood

Daniel Linehan / Hiatus

dance
28—29.04.2017
Kaaitheater

Flood is a choreography of entrances and exits. In the midst of our throwaway society and the flood of new technologies and ideas, Daniel Linehan questions the cultural domination of the new. At the same time, he considers what is disappearing, and what is becoming superfluous at an ever-faster pace.

DOUBLE BILL: Hauert + Schenker

28—29.04.2017

DVD DVD

Vincent Dunoyer

lecture performance
dance
28—29.04.2017
Kaaistudios

When Vincent Dunoyer began to create performances himself it struck him that dance industry professionals would always ask him the same thing. ‘Can you send us a DVD of the performance?’ In DVD DVD he creates a montage of personal and professional memories, like a lecture interspersed with video and dance. Both intimate and universal!

Any Table Any Room

Jonathan Burrows, Matteo Fargion / Mette Edvardsen, Dounia Mahammed, Lili Rampre & Andros Zins-Browne

performance
25—26.04.2018
Kaaistudios

Jonathan Burrows, dancer and choreographer. Matteo Fargion, musician and composer. Always the two of them… but not this time! They invite four local artists – Mette Edvardsen, Dounia Mahammed, Lili Rampre and Andros Zins-Browne – to address the subject of ‘the possibility and impossibility of community’. The ingredients? 72 clay objects created by the performers, group singing and Indian drone sounds on smartphones.

The moon is the moon is the moon

Anneleen Keppens

dance
27—28.04.2018
Kaaistudios

The moon is the moon is the moon deconstructs the structure of a dance trio and exposes its building blocks. Just like the preparatory sketches for a painting, the performance begins with various perspectives and movements. The individual layers that you discover in the choreography invite you to see things in new ways.

Only One of Many

DD Dorvillier & Sébastien Roux/human future dance corps

dance
27—28.04.2018
Kaaitheater

How does your perception of a dance or music sequence change when it is combined with a different choreography or a different musical composition? What meanings, impressions and images are conjured, and what unexpected relationships to listening and looking are stirred?

Lecture on The Red Pieces

Mette Ingvartsen

talk
28.04.2018
Kaaitheater

Within the context of Dance Day, Mette Ingvartsen gives a lecture on the relationship between sexuality, pleasure, performance, and economy. She reflects upon the way borders between private and public space are dissolving and how this process is fueled by an increasing demand for self-performance and self-exposure.

Workshop

Anneleen Keppens

workshop
28.04.2018
Kaaistudios

Anneleen shares some tools she worked with when creating The moon is the moon is the moon. These tools are not based on technique, but on imagination and sensations. Guided improvisations allow you to discover your personal movement language and to create simple dance phrases that are unique to your body. No dance experience required!
