Never Walk Alone #15: Screws
With Screws Alexander Vantournhout elaborates on his long-term research into the relationship between bodies and objects. How far does the autonomy of a human body extend?
In a series of short microperformances Vantournhout explores the boundaries between the body and its surroundings, by attaching objects as prostheses to the performers, or by using an object as a co-performer.
Titles such as Object as projectile, Ice shoes, Wall Quartet / Bending Space, Use of the wall in the choreography or Anti-gravity boots provide a playful insight into the strategies that lie behind Vantounhout’s choreography. The work is also a reference to iconic performances from the seventies by Trisha Brown (Walking on the Wall, Spiral, Roof Piece), Merce Cunningham and Johann Le Guillerm.
