“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)

Dance and language still seem to have precarious ties to each other.

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.

There is nothing in front of me. There is nothing underneath my feet. There is nothing to my left. There is nothing here. There is nothing beyond the door, nothing the cat is running away with. There is nothing buried underneath the tree. There is nothing bruised, nothing growing in my kidneys. There is nothing funny about a gold fish. There is nothing in the house, nothing in the Milky Way. There is nothing left to see. Funny.
“A man, running along the street, stumbles and falls; the passers-by burst out laughing. They would not laugh at him, I imagine, could they suppose that the whim had suddenly seized him to sit down on the ground. They laugh because his sitting down is involuntary.”
