08/21 New Ocean Sea Cycle
28 August, 09.48 a.m. until 29 August, 10.31 a.m.
NEW OCEAN SEA CYCLE
Kolumba Ed.s 1–14 (Baffin – St. Lawrence)
The acclaimed piece »New Ocean Sea Cycle« created by Richard Siegal with his company Ballet of Difference, based at Schauspiel Köln, is being shown as a continuous performance over one weekend at Kolumba, for the first time, as a collaboration between Kolumba and Tanz Köln. The timing of the beginning and end is determined by the 23 hours and 56 minutes it takes for the museum to rotate once around the Earth’s axis (a sidereal day) and the 24 hours and 48 minutes it takes for the moon to revolve once around the Earth (a lunar day). The Kolumba performance will not only launch the company’s third season as Cologne’s ballet company, but will also be the closing event of Kolumba’s exhibition »The subtle interplay between the I and the me«. Peter Zumthor’s visionary architecture will become the site of a vibrant interplay of movement, sound and light. The illumination, shadow, twilight and darkness of the differing diurnal and nocturnal atmospheres correspond with parts of the performance. Visitors are cordially invited to attend at any time and to stay as long as they like.
With: Claudia Ortiz Arraiza, Martina Chavez, Jemima Rose Dean, Livia Gil, Clara Carolina Sorzano Hernandez, Sean Lammer, Mason Manning, Nicolás Martínez, Allison McGuire, Andrea Mocciardini, Margarida de Abreu Neto, Evan Supple, Madison Vomastek, Zuzana Zahradníková, Long Zou
