In the frame of the series Choreographers On New TracksPOST-SHOW DISCUSSION
On 25 January Attila Nemes, program adviser at Kitchen Budapest, will be talking with Chris Haring, the choreographer, after the performance (in English with Hungarian translation).
In Talking Head, Austrian choreographer Chris Haring and his group Liquid Loft comment divinely and humorously on the communications craziness resulting from facebook, twitter, skype & co. Realities are constantly being reinvented and bodies, sounds and languages contorted, copied or transformed into language sculptures. In an entertaining and intelligent way, Talking Head shows the desire for real identification in the midst of a flood of digital information and images. In their performances and installations, Liquid Loft interconnect contemporary dance directly with other forms of contemporary art, in order to create a cohesive all-embracing piece of art. Their idiosyncratic visual and formal language, their distinctive acoustic stage-sets and professional dance production have earned Liquid Loft international recognition and many awards.
