About
En 1998, Anne Teresa De Keersmaeker revient à deux de ses plus grands amours de jeunesse : la ± danse pure ? et la musique du compositeur minimaliste Steve Reich. Riche de vingt années d'un parcours chorégraphique foisonnant, elle s'empare du 'Drumming' de Reich, longue oeuvre hypnotique écrite pour large ensemble de percussions, et en fait jaillir un spectacle fébrile et radical où semble s'être distillée l'essence de son style : motifs mathématiques, art de la variation perpétuelle, utilisation géométrique de l'espace.0'Drumming' fait fusionner le raffinement structurel, la virtuosité technique, le plaisir de la danse à l'état brut. L'énergie du langage cinétique, les costumes de Dries Van Noten et la scénographie de Jan Versweyveld contribuent à d'extraordinaires compositions visuelles.0'Drumming' a depuis lors été repris sur les scènes du monde entier. Les tournées ont été suivies par les photographes Herman Sorgeloos et Anne Van Aerschot, qui ouvrent aujourd'hui leur vaste archive photographique et nous offrent un aperçu kaléidoscopique de ce spectacle iconique.
In 1998, Anne Teresa De Keersmaeker returned to two of her greatest childhood loves: pure dance and music by minimalist composer Steve Reich. Rich in twenty years of an abundant choreographic journey, she takes hold of Reich's 'Drumming', a long hypnotic work written for a large percussion ensemble, and gives rise to a feverish and radical show in which the essence seems to have distilled of his style: mathematical patterns, the art of perpetual variation, geometric use of space. 0 'Drumming' fuses structural refinement, technical virtuosity, the pleasure of dance in its raw state. The energy of kinetic language, costumes by Dries Van Noten and scenography by Jan Versweyveld contribute to extraordinary visual compositions. 0 'Drumming' has since been taken on stages around the world. The tours were followed by photographers Herman Sorgeloos and Anne Van Aerschot, who today open their extensive photographic archive and offer us a kaleidoscopic glimpse of this iconic spectacle.
