For the tenth anniversary of WhyNot<\/em>, they return to W139, the place where it all began, for an old school evening of dance, performance, music and art! The evening at W139 is curated in collaboration with Julidans, Vlaams Cultuurhuis de Brakke Grond, Veem House for Performance and Cinedans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The festival program focuses on the body and architecture, on movement and boundaries. How do performance artists and choreographers see the role of the body in relation to taking, giving or defining space? What do boundaries, physical and cultural, mean for our freedom of movement? How much private space can we claim in a city that seems to be bursting at the seams, and in a world that seems to succumb to that pressure?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Programme<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In the duration performance Relay<\/em> by choreographer Ula Sickle (in\u00a0collab. with Brakke Grond), a black flag – referring to the many\u00a0protests worldwide – is kept in motion for hours on end in a fascinating\u00a0test of endurance. In Spell Action # 1<\/em>, installation and performance\u00a0artist R\u016bta Butkut\u0117 examines how an object set within a spatial\u00a0environment can have a guiding effect on other bodies. Clara Amaral (in\u00a0collab. with Veem House for Performance) gives the W139 space an extra\u00a0dimension with her screen performance In our eyes, a cascade<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Together with Julidans we present Resident<\/em>, an intense performance\u00a0about a man in his apartment by Dunja Jocic, who a.o. won the Dutch\u00a0Dance Days Award in 2018. Especially for WhyNot, scenographer and\u00a0designer Theun Mosk will explore the W139 space by working with the\u00a0floor and intervening with materials, so that the public will move\u00a0through the space automatically. Choreographer Fabienne Vegt made\u00a0Scripted Space <\/em>for three excellent dancers Chlo\u00e9 Albaret, C\u00e9sar\u00a0Faria Fernandes and Marne van Opstal (NDT 1), in which they recall\u00a0movements and forms that were once written on their bodies. Accompanied\u00a0by live music by Frank Rosaly (drums), Torbjorn Zetterberg (bass) and\u00a0Cene Resnik (saxophone), the performance flows into a party with a dj\u00a0set by sound artist Salvador Breed (co-curator Le Guess Who 2019), that\u00a0will take us on a wandering journey through musical worlds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Also on the program are Merce Cunningham’s film Assemblage<\/em> (1968) in\u00a0collab. with Cinedans, a dance and music improvisation, an immersive\u00a0installation by Annika Kappner and talks by Esmee Geerken and BAU LAB!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To enter the dance floor well prepared we also have two dance workshops\u00a0by Mirte Courtens and Katharina Conradi on Saturday for you to join.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
