D.A.V.E. digital amplified video engine - Multimedia Dance

26 - 27/5/2007     Macao Cultural Centre Small Auditorium     100

Idea, Direction, Video Art and Composition: Klaus Obermaier
Choreography, Dance: Chris Haring

Dealing with the future possibility of removal of all limitations upon the body, D.A.V.E. is personified by a performer whose body is simultaneously the stage and the mediator of a utopia. This potential is powerfully proclaimed, thanks to futuristic technologies and implantation. In this performance Chris Haring makes a wide variety of new experiences possible, like allowing a man to discover what it’s like to be a woman, and vice versa. This ground-breaking work addresses the issue of redefining humanity in the new millennium in a thought-provoking manner that transcends culture and language.

An ingenious dance performance of the two artists Obermaier and Haring over the topic of the manipulation of the human body in the age of the biotechnological reproductibility.
