The programme
9 p.m. - 10 p.m.
CONCERT - ELEKTRO GUZZI
HALL
Out with machines, in with instruments. Austrian electronic trio Elektro Guzzi are more interested in musical dissonance than analogue compositions. There is one overriding theme: they cannot really master their instruments. But nothing ever sounds wrong, because Bernhard Hammer (guitar), Jakob Schneidewind (bass) and Bernhard Breuer (drums) are incredibly metronomic, and the result is stunning.
7.30 – 8.30 – 9.30 p.m.
« TENUE » - PASSION PASSION COLLECTIVE
DANCE
GALLERY 1
The Passion Passion collective provide a physical and sensitive response to the works in the Egon Schiele exhibition. The dancers adopt a line between their bodies and their clothes, forming a point of departure for all their movements: spirited, thrown, exchanged, layered. The bodies and fabrics suspended in the space reflect the poses portrayed in the paintings and offer a vibrant perspective on Schiele’s works.
Passion Passion brings together artists and designers from different backgrounds. Led by choreographer Alice Martins, their bodies interact in a collective exploration, confronting and taming each other to create a shared language.
In the galleries
SHORT TOURS
Duration: 15 minutes
On Level -1, our exhibition guides will discuss the representation of bodies in Schiele’s work before the intervention by the Passion Passion dancers. On levels 1 and 2, the short tours will take up the theme of pictorial anatomy in the work of Jean-Michel Basquiat.
