Un essai à ciel ouvert. Ein Tanzgrund für Zürich
France
The French choreographer Boris Charmatz offers us «un essai à ciel ouvert», a try-out in the open air. For 18 days, part of the Landiwiese will act as a performing space for «Terrain». As with Forced Entertainment and their performance series last year, we allowed him to choose a venue in order to realise his project for the duration of the festival. He has chosen a non-venue: a grassy area outlined by the skeleton of the Pavillon which usually stands on the main square. Here he tests the work on his new project: a cultural institution without apermanent building. This «Dance Ground for Zürich» sets the stage for an extensive programme, comprising regular public warm-ups, performances, a symposium and workshops.
