Following the Musée de la danse in Rennes, Boris Charmatz has now founded «Terrain» together with long-standing kindred spirits in order to work on the vision of a new art space: radically ecological and without the need for a permanent building. He has an architecture of bodies in mind: Art under the open sky in an urban environment, a green urban space for art. The Theater Spektakel as a festival of temporary buildings is the ideal testing ground for a first attempt. Together with Boris Charmatz, artists as well as experts of art history, landscape architecture and sociology will reflect on a new institution for the performing arts in the 21st century. (mvh)
