Performer
and choreographer Raimund Hoghe’s work questions conceptions
of difference and expectations of the dancing body, advocating
inclusive views of humanity and acceptance and celebration
of self and others.
Created in Paris in 2007 and co-presented with Dance
Theater Workshop, Boléro Variations features
the music of Ravel’s Boléro, folksongs, and the
soundtrack from the TV broadcast of Jayne Torvill and Christopher
Dean’s ice-dancing performance at the 1984 Olympics in
Sarajevo.
The three-night run of Boléro Variations will be
followed by a single performance of Hoghe’s L’Après-midi at Danspace
Project. The piece is inspired by Vaslav Nijinski’s legendary
1912 interpretation of a Stéphane Mallarmé poem, L’Après-midi
d’un faune. Revisiting this piece nearly a century later,
Hoghe explores the exquisite presence of the young dancer
Emmanuel Eggermont in a radiant solo performance. |
