Continu by Sasha Waltz

Performance on August 7, 2011 at the Salzburg Festival
Sasha Waltz has consolidated her two major projects for museums to create the full-length choreography »Continu«. In 2009 the choreographer devised the artistic inaugurations for David Chipperfield's Neue Museum Berlin and Zaha Hadid's MAXXI in Rome. Sasha Waltz is developing together with 24 dancers a large-sized, archaic group choreography on the base of Edgar Varèse's great work for orchestra »Arcana«. »Continu« exhibits attention between choreographic and pictorial elements, coalescing a essential characteristics of Sasha Waltz's work in a new way.
