Ein Diskussionsformat am 27. März 2020 im Müllner Bräu Salzburg, konzipiert von Peter Stamer

Some people claim that the bar is a place where people go to be lonely together. This is an assumption that Peter Stamer would seriously like to throw into question…
In summer 2019, director Peter Stamer created a theatre solo for dancer and actor Frank Willens based on this famous Kafka text within the architectural machinery of Mumok (the grand museum of contemporary art of Vienna).

At a time when a strong need and heightened expectations for a new dance centre in Warsaw has been felt among the local dance community, there has been an acute need for fantasizing. Hence, Peter Stamer invited performing artists, directors, visual artists, urbanists, curators, as well as students of the humanities and arts to join a five-day Laboratory inspired by the idea of creating a virtual space for dance.
For decades, the Berlin dance scene has been venting the need for other spaces for contemporary dance, based on the assumption that dance’s specific qualities ask for a particular kind of spatiality. The workshop in February 2018 for Dance Intensive at Tanzfabrik Berlin was an attempt to gain access to that need by creating a playground, however speculative, for common imaginaries.

“Contemporary art has two major problems. One is that it’s absolute meaningless when it comes to a larger scale. Whatever is being produced, performed, presented has no potency to leave the bubble of those who are in one way or the other involved in the respective field.” (Gianluca di Fratelli)
Der Workshop ‘Play Seriously’ vom 14. – 16. Mai 2016 bei Zeitraum Exit in Mannheim nimmt Methoden des ’Theater-Machens’ aus meiner eigenen künstlerischen Praxis in den Blick. Es werden kurze Szenen erarbeitet, in welchen die Bedingungen von Sprechen und Verkörpern spielerisch im Vordergrund stehen.
Dance and language still seem to have precarious ties to each other. On the one hand, contemporary dance maintains a close bond with the language of theory, with its reflexivity attempting to inflect the dance process. On the other hand, there is the notion that dance dwells beyond the reach of language and cannot be touched by it.

The crisis in Greece has proven it necessary to not only pose important questions of solidarity but also to practice new ways of learning how to live, think, and learn together. The recent European rhetorics of guilt and blame reflect this shortcoming of a common practice: in the end we all do sit in the same boat.
This research project at Porto from July 13 to 24th, 2015 tends to react to the political short-comings the citizens of Porto and Europe are facing in the light of the multiple crises our continent goes through for more than seven years: we want to invite the citizens of Porto to join in the intellectual and physical work and create hands-on a ‘common contemporary imaginary’ by building a labyrinth a.o. on the beach.
