Description

Unfolding temporal perceptions. In »Now and Then«, Christina Ciupke and Jasna L. Vinovrški take a journey back in time, to the beginnings of independent dance. They are looking at the moment in history when dance freed itself from institutions for the first time. They are interested in the gaps and missing information in the historical context which allow them to imagine the spirit of that time. In a collaborative process they will also be stepping into their own choreographic past in order to unfold different temporal perceptions.

Biographies

Christina Ciupke

Christina Ciupke (she/her) is a Berlin-based choreographer and performer. In her work she explores the fragile balance between the individual body and the world surrounding it. She interweaves traces of the past with present sensations and future imaginations. Drawing on the kinesthetic memory of her choreographic work she engages with central elements such as time, the body, the other, and (in)visibility. Close collaborations with other artists play a specific role in her practice. She holds a Master’s degree in Choreography from the Amsterdam University of the Arts.

Jasna L. Vinovrški

Jasna L. Vinovrški (she/her) is a performer, choreographer and lecturer who grew up in Zagreb, Croatia and has been based in Berlin since 2008. She has been co-running the company Public in Private and Studio PIPfor over 18 years. Alongside her artistic practice, she co-curated and organized performance platforms such as 3AM, Montag Modus, and Flutgraben Performances, and has been actively involved in dance politics since 2020.
