nomadic academy in Munich, 9. – 18. December 2019
TANZPAKT Stadt-Land-Bund
The NOMADIC ACADEMY will have its first Munich platform in December 2019. Here all participants of the research group will come together and meet a wide range of different people, groups and institutions – like other artists, communities, students, theoreticians, universities… In workshops, trainings and discussions the subjects of free spaces, alternativ spaces and border(s) with a focus on evasion, displacement and resistance will be tackled. These topics will be explored under the keywords QUER and QUEER (QUER – a German term which means cross, transvers, diagonally), that will be the starting points for a practical and theoretical research journey.
The NOMADIC ACADEMY invites the public to join the research journey with a row of public events – most of them entrance free.
All events are in English.

18. December, 8 pm / nomadic performance „Art and Love“ by Maija Hirvanen
Love is a worn out, shabby, abused word. But what significance does it have beyond the clichés? Finish choreographer Maija Hirvanen’s lecture performance “Art and Love” explores shared and learned concepts of love, and calls up both historical and contemporary images in order to approach its subject matter. How do we practice and perform love? What role does it play in art? In her performance, the Finnish choreographer lightly combines precise observations with big questions. As in her previous work, Hirvanen thinks about how we as humans should not lose our bodily relation to the rituals through which connections to others are being created.
Performance and choreography: Maija Hirvanen // Performer in dialogue in the process: Hannah Ouramo // Lecture assistant on stage: Jenni-Elina von Bagh // Lighting design: Heikki Paasonen (adapted in Münich by Jenni Pystynen) // Sound design: Markus Lindén (adapted at Münich by Ville Kabrell) // Residency support: Santarcangelo Festival // Production: Zodiak – Uuden tanssin keskus, Maija Hirvanen // Supported by The Arts Promotion Centre Finland
