Duet Project, Eiko Otake and Ishmael Chambers-Letson
Lafayette Anticipations9 rue du Platre 75004 PARIS Born in Japan, Eiko Otake is an award-winning, movement-based artist and a prominent figure of the New York art scene since the 1970s.[/b]
For her Parisian premiere, she presents a selection ofplace-specific media works, as well as her “Duet Project”, an open-ended series of cross-disciplinary experiments (2017-), performed on this occasion with renowned choreographer and performer Ishmael Houston-Jones.
Together, they explore their bodies as landscape and time.
Each performance will be followed by a brief talk by performance studies scholar Joshua Chambers-Letson who considers how gathering and performance sustain communal life in the face of catastrophe.
Finally, Otake will offer a “Delicious Movement Workshop” on Thursday 10 December. The workshop is emphatically noncompetitive and welcomes everyone. No previous dance training is necessary.
The programme is presented in partnership with the Centre Pompidou.
