On the shoulders of giants

Helge Letonja

Based on the cultural-historical parable of dwarves on the shoulders of giants, Helge Letonja and the Ensemble of curious nature deal with the further development of societies in the first production. How aware are we of the connecting lines between the present and the past, between contemporary cultural creation and the experiences and traditions on which they are based? Do they restrict our thinking and acting? With what attitude do we approach what surrounds us? Which traces and values do we follow, which do we leave behind? Together the ensemble focuses on personal perceptions, environment and society. To compositions by Simon Goff and songs by Lynn Wright, the dancers* animate the stage in multidimensional visual and body languages. With physical vehemence and mutability an artistic reference space is created about the constitution of complex worlds.
