Choreographic practice and urban space making
6 May 2022 15:00 - 18:00
This practical research workshop proposes choreographic possibilities as to engage with urban space as space of action. Based on the understanding that city is a complex and often enough conflicting emergence of different systems, motivations and doings in close proximity, we will see how choreographic partaking can modify this emergence of public urban space.
The workshop is led by Sabine Zahn who is a Berlin-based choreographer and a Fellow of the THIRD program at DAS Graduate School Amsterdam. She conducts this workshop as an activation of her artistic practice with urbanity, that is also presented in the exhibition "In Search of the Pluriverse". The workshop interrogates the urban surroundings of the Institute and connects to facilities and thematic strands of the exhibition itself (communalidad, making worlds, futuring). The workshop is open for students of the ATD and DAS and for anybody curious about urban space as physical space and the emerging questions towards applied choreographic practice.
