Deleted scenes
We dig up some unreleased fragments of the interview with Yvonne Rainer that we were unable to include the first time around.
André Lepecki
André Lepecki talks about the chronopolitics of disappearance, dance, Louis XIV, the acquisition of choreography, testimonial power, object-oriented ontologies, choreopolicing, the writing of movement, and selfies.
Boris Charmatz
Dance interpreter, choreographer, thinker, writer, teacher and curator Boris Charmatz reflects on how to address power structures within the artistic field. He also talks about polisemy, collectivity, communities and anti-communities, radical pedagogy, dissent, the Musée de la danse, the complex and inexhaustible relationship between dance and history, working inside gestures, and the beauty of older people skateboarding.
Xavier Le Roy
Interview with the dancer and choreographer Xavier Le Roy about his choreographies and working processes.
Yvonne Rainer
Yvonne Rainer talks about the passing of time, the transferability of dance, training as legacy and the body’s filmic decay. About tenacity, physicality, and influences. And about the turns, leaps, and tumbles of a multifaceted career spanning more than half a century.
