Empire by Superamas (Performance) - 15 August 2009, Saturday and 16 August 2009, Sunday - Berlin, Germany

Empire by Superamas — Fri, 24 Jul 2009 11:18:07 -0500

The latest piece by the French/Austrian collective starts out with the Napoleonic-Austrian battle near Aspern in the year 1809. People in historical costumes shoot, die and rape until the battle is revealed to be a film scene. This play within a play is the point of departure for a reflection on the mediatization of power. ”For all it proposes, EMPIRE (ART & POLITICS) is an important work of art, an utmost contemporary and worldly critical statement in a clear and challenging form.” (Jeroen Peeters, www.corpusweb.net)

Impulstanz Festival (Festival) - 16 July 2009, Thursday till 16 August 2009, Sunday - Vienna, Austria

Impulstanz Festival — Sun, 24 May 2009 17:58:57 -0500

Thousands of professional dancers, choreographers and teachers from all over the world, come together, work together, for five weeks, in one city - ImPulsTanz.

1984. In Austria‘s leading cultural city Vienna the cultural manager Karl Regenburger and the choreographer Ismael Ivo launch the Internationale Tanzwochen Wien in order to give contemporary dance a voice in Austria. With six teachers - amongst them the well-known Joe Alegado, Germaine Acogny and Walter Raines - and twenty workshops, the two organizers get the festival started. A new dance culture unfolds itself and spreads out. Four years later a performance element is added to the increasingly successful workshop festival. In 1988 the ImPulsTanz Vienna International Dance Festival is introduced for the first time, featuring works by Wim Vandekeybus, Marie Chouinard and Mark Tompkins. All names that are still closely connected with ImPulsTanz, which meanwhile has grown to Europe's biggest contemporary festival.

Aiming the furtherance of contemporary dance in Austria, ImPulsTanz fathers the project danceWEB in 1996.The initiative initially conceived as mere scholarship programme focuses on the exchange of ideas and knowledge, not limited by national borders, on concentrated further training, on meeting with internationally renowned artists gathering in Vienna at ImPulsTanz with the aim to orient the career of the participants.

ImPulsTanz - That's performances, research projects and workshops. Contemporary dance establishment meets the trendsetting productions of tomorrow, which have found its place at the festival‘s \[8:tension\] series.
