“On the dance floor we collectively spit movements (sometimes at the rate of liters per night) and bathe together in our own dance: a fluid of pleasure we freely exchange.” Read Dani Blanga Gubbay’s (@blangagubbay ) final chapter of his column at the link in bio.

Faire du toucher une chorégraphie du désir 👉👈 À l’occasion de notre festival Échelle Humaine, Alex Baczyński-Jenkins (@baczynski.j ) dévoile ‘Federico’ (2015), une pièce furtive partagée entre deux interprètes sur la mémoire du toucher, à l’échelle des mains. Chaque itération de la performance est chorégraphiée en collaboration avec les interprètes et adaptée au duo - avec une version spéciale créée pour le festival interprétée par les danseurs Malick Cissé (@malickcss ) et Andréa Givanovitch (@andrea.giv ). À ne pas manquer également, la première parisienne du film ‘Such Feeling’ du chorégraphe. Ce documentaire poétique et politique suit un groupe d’ami·es à Varsovie, où il·elles jouent, protestent et se soutiennent mutuellement au milieu des transformations sociales dans un État hostile. Il s’agit d’un récit poétique de la vie queer quotidienne, de l’amitié, de l’intimité et de la résistance en Pologne dans les années 2019-2024. - As part of our Échelle Humaine festival, Alex Baczyński-Jenkins unveils ‘Federico’ (2015), a furtive piece shared between two performers on the memory of touch, on the scale of hands.

Just over a week ago we presented Malign Junction (Goodbye, Berlin) at the atrium of the @gropiusbau . Thank you to everyone who joined us, as well as a huge thank you to all the collaborators. Making this kind of work requires immense amounts of exchange and collective labour and at the same time it is a leap of faith. I’m grateful to the new and longstanding collaborators who made this endeavor lift off the ground. Especially to the dancers; Aaa, Aaron, Elvan, Sam, Shade and Mickey. To Thibault for the choreographic support in the studio. To Krzysztof for the immersion through Sound. To Jśa for the gorge sound contributions. To Jacqline for the brilliant basking lumiere. To Société Vide for manifesting the set / sculpture. I would also like to thank the ‘backstage’ meaning the producer extraordinaire Darcey, and the rigor of the studio; Andrea and Laura, without whom none of this would be possible, as well as the team at the Gropius Bau, Nora, for the invitation and conversation, Jenny for making this possible,and Edessa and Sasha, for the support. Finally to Andrea, Carlos and Sebastjan for the exchanges. As well as many others, named in the credits I’m looking forward to the work continuing to grow and to all our upcoming presentations. Next up is Lausanne at the Arsenic, we’ll be there next week. Full credits and thank yous in the comment below. Photos by Maximilian Koppernock
