# www.urbanartstories.com |
After the huge succes
with Berliner Luft 2 in Malmö / Signa Sørensens
The Black Rose Trick – and over 11.000 visitors, Berliner
Luft 2 continues in Kanonhallen which presents the hottest
stage trends directly from Berlin in Copenhagen.
BERLINER LUFT 2 in KANONHALLEN consists of highly
realistic and non-aesthetic performances. They claim not to
contain hidden meaning and focus on the relationship between
performer, audience and space. These characteristics are examined
continuously with the audience through discussion and debate
with the artists.
All of the artists and groups that are presented
under Berliner Luft 2 are now residing in Berlin and educated
in Applied Theater Studies at Justus-Libig University Giessen,
which is without comparison the most important and influential
theater school in Germany.
Applied Theater Studies is not an actual
method, but a way in which to approach stage art. The participating
artists utilize humanistic theories and artistic strategies
in direct interaction with reality, and the results are presented
live on stage. Therefore, the performances often exist in
the crossroads between art and research.

BERLINER LUFT 2 in KANONHALLEN
has received funding from i.a. Kunststyrelsen, Goethe-Institut.
Curator: Henrik Vestergaard Pedersen.

ZARATHUSTRAS
ONKEL WE COME IN PEACE
APRIL 3 - 4, 2005 |
WE COME IN PEACE by Zarathustras
Onkel is a re-adaptation of H.G. Wells’ and Orson
Wells’ The War of the Worlds, and is a meeting between
artists from Giessen, Berlin and the Scandinavian countries.
In its form, the performance is closest to the performance-lectures
that were presented under Berliner Luft 1. But WE COME
IN PEACE is much more, in that lighting, dance, documentary
film and dialogue are incorporated into the lecture.

| ZARATHUSTRAS ONKEL
was founded by Henrik Vestergaard Pedersen in 2001. #

THOMAS
MARTIUS & ANDRZEJ WIRTH LAS
VENICE
APRIL 5 – 6, 2005 |
Andrezj Wirth and Thomas Martius
have researched the original Venice and its copy: the
Casino Hotel Venetian in Las Vegas. Now they present their
difference in LAS VENICE - an essayistic video performance
that asks the questions, “What is an original?”,
“Who observes who?” and “Who performs,
and who is audience?”
|
 |
| In 1982 Andrezj Wirth
founded Applied Theater Studies, where Thomas
Martius later studied. |

SHE
SHE POP WARUM TANZT IHR NICHT?
APRIL 7 – 8, 2005 |
The Ballroom is a place full
of promises, warm feelings and secret wishes. It houses
failed plans, strategies and grand performances. The dance
floor’s studs and disco queens take the spotlight
with their chosen rolls. But fate is not controllable,
as the dance floor is a mine field full of embarrassment
and hope.
|
 |
| In SHE SHE POPs performance
WARUM TANZT IHR NICHT?, the audience can dance with the
performers or with each other, and they are posed a series
of questions about themselves and each other, and are
“voluntarily forced” to test their own and
others’ boundaries. |
SHE SHE POP was founded
by six women from Applied Theater Studies in
1993.
