At your next appointment with dance:
Explore the link between dance and painting, a research by Collectif LUCODA for ESCH22, before immersing yourself in the multiver- sities with Katarzyna Baran. All this will be completed by a conference on research into decadence by the Eddi Van Tsui Company.

CHOREOCHROMA — LUCODA

> Work in progress

The project ChoreoChroma was born from the common desire of the Pavle Beljanski Memorial Collection and the Lucoda collective to explore together the links between dance and painting. Encouraged by the two European Capitals of Culture, Esch and Novi Sad, the collaborative project has developed into a creative and cultural exchange project, starting with a painting by the Serbian artist Sava Šumanović, Déjeuner sur l’herbe. A multimedia research project began, mixing dance, painting, video, music and photography, questioning their relationship to time and space, their respective differences and similarities, to allow a common form of expression to emerge. The public will be invited to participate in a multidimensional experience, a choreographic performance that is at once sensory, auditory and visual, inviting them to explore the works of historical heritage with a contemporary eye.

ALFA CENTAURI — KATARZYNA BARAN

> Public presentation in the framework of an international cooperation with MIT (PL)

ALFA CENTAURI deals with the question of the multiverse and the phenomenon of time in combination with the human being, by means of dance theatre. Physics, philosophy and art are mutually linked. Human DNA is a cosmos and every cell in the body contains all the information about itself. The neuronal connections in the brain are like galaxies, constellations. The body and space. Stillness and movement. Memories and emptiness. What are we in the face of this immensity? Who are we? When are we?
We thought for so long that our moments were falling – into each other, into the next, in a long thread suspended between the beginning and the end. We were so blind. They surround us. They fall around us like confetti. We carry a void. We have space inside us. We have the cosmos within us. We are one.

DÉCADENCE. RIEN NE VOUS OBLIGE À RÉAGIR — Cie Eddi Van Tsui

> Conference

After long, seemingly carefree years of near-death battles over discounted chocolate spreads, the world seems to have become an inexhaustible sottisier. A place where madmen, hilarious and armed, celebrate their victory. Will the survival instinct mobilise? Will we fall into resignation and je-m’en-foutisme?
It is around the subject of decadence that the artists wanted to develop a new artistic repertoire, between dance and dubbing, they experiment with text and movement. The conference is an insight into their research process.

(H)OMBRES — Arnoldas Kubilius

> Exhibition

Shadows cast on male forms, male forms in shadow, these are the subjects of (H)OMBRES, the exhibition by Arnoldas Kubilius, a Lithuanian photographer living in Luxembourg. The title combines the Spanish word ‘hombres’, meaning men, and the French word ‘ombres’. The exhibition reveals Arnoldas’ fascination with the forms of the male body. It presents some of the works found in his recent self-published book, also entitled (H)OMBRES, produced with the support of the Luxembourg Ministry of Culture.

The video, accompanying the exhibition, will present a selection of Arnoldas’ latest works combined with an ethereal piece of music composed and performed by the Luxembourg-based band ThalamusProject (@thalamusproject_).
