Working Title Situation #01 - Prince of Networks materialises as an experiential capsule where we gather to visually reflect upon different states of matter and its natural cycles. During this particular experiment, Rodrigo Sobarzo will focus on the cultivation of flies. Out of decomposition a newborn insect/technology is conceived and dies again. Prince of Networks is a visual manifesto probing new ecologies that blends the digital and the analogue as one.

Working Title Situation #01 - Salva Sanchis' series Islands consists of a collection of small dance pieces that will be presented both individually and in different combinations. There are solos, duets and trios ranging from 1 to 12 minutes long each. Each piece results from a different research topic and has its own separate identity.

Working Title Situation #01 - Ruta Butkute develops complex sculptural installations, inspired by other media such as video and movement research. Recently she started to collaborate with acrobats and improvisation dancers, who would increasingly determine both the shape as well as the spacing of her installations, and which stimulated her work to expand into the direction of performative installation work.

Working Title Situation #01 - With MARVELOUS Bryan Campbell developed both a performance and a magazine. The experience of flipping through its pages is recreated in the collective theatre space.

Eleanor Bauer calls the second season of her BAUER HOUR ‘the dance season’. This edition's guest is the Brussels-New York dancer Michael Helland. He has worked with, among others, Xavier Le Roy, Daniel Linehan, Alexandra Bachzetsis, Tino Sehgal, Marina Abramović, Big Art Group, Ivo Dimchev and Bauer herself. Together with Eleanor he prepares a very special treat for the audience. 

In addition to the performances of Hotel Malaria, Het Atelier is also there to help with a number of other activities. As a part of Verhelst XL.

PERFORMATIK 2015 - In the first production of his own, Christian Bakalov (known for his work with Jan Fabre, Ivo Dimchev, Jérôme Bel and others) takes you on an anonymous journey in the dark, a place where boundaries are undefined. BRIGHT flirts with the near-darkness and sharpens your senses. Phosphorescent delusions/images stimulate your imagination. 

PERFORMATIK 2015 - Heine Avdal and Yukiko Shinozaki, masters of mysterious performances in everyday locations, continue to explore space and how it affects our body and our perception. To this end they use a structure of moveable objects. The spectator goes on a journey in his imagination and is perfectly prepared to encounter a certain ‘objecthood’. 

PERFORMATIK 2015 DOUBLE BILL - Body Not Fit For Purpose is the first overtly political work of choreographer Jonathan Burrows and musician Matteo Fargion. Its starting point is the uselessness of dancing to express anything of any real concern and at the same time the inherent, gloriously foolish radicality of the attempt. With sequenza, artist Manon de Boer and violinist and composer George van Dam present a programme of live performances and films around four compositions for solo violin

The 96 short works in Bach’s Das Wohltemperierte Klavier each have a profile, an individual character, their own dynamics and an individual time sequence. Musician Alain Franco sees them as a series of ‘novellas’ which he connects to each other by applying editing principles and so arrives at ‘a form that hovers somewhere between opera and novel’.

Welcome to the BAUER HOUR dance season! This season's second edition of Eleanor Bauer's variety show promises a walk & talk with dancer Chrysa Parkinson (Rosas, ZOO...), and musical accompaniment by Carlos Alberto Paniz Garbin. BAUER HOUR remains quality time that lasts just one hour.
