Allongé

Performance · Premiere by July Weber


In the frame of Open Spaces - How to get in Touch with…

In “Allongé” Julian Weber continues his interdisciplinary approach, based on an examination of Constantin Brânçusi’s sculptural work in collaboration with a ballet dancer and a pole dancer. Brânçusi’s oeuvre and his pioneering formal and contextual approaches serve as a starting point for the development of a stage set which is investigated for its performative and choreographic potential. Through the collision of the different disciplines and dance styles, both opposites and parallels of these techniques are examined, as well as a potential entanglement of the styles. Further "Allongé" explores the possibilities of emancipation from defined role models and subject/object attributions through a contemporary perspective on tradition and handicraft.

Weber studied sculpture at the HBK Braunschweig and the Academy of Arts Vienna, as well as choreography at the HZT Berlin and at the Theaterschool in Amsterdam. Over the last 15 years Weber has developed his own artistic signature, which explores the areas of friction between image, body and material for their choreographic potential. Weber won the Berlin Art Prize in 2015, was invited to the 2022 Dance Platform and has received various residencies and scholarships over the years.
