STRETCH IN HAVANA

Stretch project by choreographer/director Isabella Soupart and musical director/pianist Guy Vandromme. This work will be presented at the 14th Biennale of Contemporary Art of Havana from November 20th to 28th 2021.

SILENCE, as part of the Stretch – Timemonochromes project, is built up as a living installation, a format that looks into the contextual relationship between architectural space, dance, voice, sound, in situ field recordings and visual arts. During three weeks, Isabella Soupart and Guy Vandromme invite different artists to work together and enter into dialogue with the work of Martin Maloney (US), Marcel Duchamp, John Cage, Antoine Beuger, Morton Feldman, Eva-Maria Houben, Jürg Frey, Bruno Duplant, Craig Shepard…

Choreographer Isabella Soupart is the winner of the SACD Choreography Prize (BE) 2019, Nominated for a Total Theater Awards Edinburgh (UK) 2019, White & Case (NY) Talented Woman Artist of the Year 2019, Nominated for the Maeterlinck Critics Prize (BE) 2019, Appointed to the Rolex Mentor and Protégé Arts Initiative (NY) 2007.

The Total Theater Awards have blazed a trail of recognition for independent artists, creating innovative theatre and performance.” We celebrate artists and companies making some of the most exceptional work at the Edinburgh Fringe -artists exploring boundaries of what performance might and can be. The creative risks and explorations made here we know will influence the sector and grow audiences for years, and perhaps decades to come.” Co-Directors Jo Crowley and Becki Haines.

Choreographer Isabella Soupart and the MP4 Quartet take on three masterpieces by Steve Reich: Pendulum Music, Different Trains – 1989 Best Contemporary Composition Grammy Award – and WTC 9/11. A string quartet and a dancer will sweep you away in the powerful confrontation of dance and music amidst hypnotic images and soundscapes.

Stretch in Museums is a performance combining dance, sound and visual design where the stretching of time, sound and body is the central element. Belgian choreographer Isabella Soupart explore notions of stretching in movement from several angles within the architecture of museums. 15 dancers interacting within the space of museums. British conceptual artist Jonathan Sullam, the choreographer’s regular partner, sculpts the scenic landscape. People will enter and exit freely within a timespan of 6 hours, defining their personal time of experience.

How do we imagine tomorrow’s artistic spaces ? Belgian choreographer Isabella Soupart & visual artist Jonathan Sullam move in museum work spaces where they create a research laboratory that questions and reviews the relationship  between the individual and the work of art.

After Words concludes a trilogy relating to Gilles Deleuze’s Abécédaire, imagined as a concept and process. As a theatrical documentary bringing together pop philosophy, dance, music and video art. Isabella Soupart questions several notions : notions of limit, territory and bestiality, drawing from the Fluxus group’s conceptual art.
