The Princess and the Shepherd. A Fairytale
Dancer
Maria Lassnig's take on the fairytale. A collaboration with dancer Liesbeth Eberwein (Baroque Statues).
Baroque Statues
Dancer
In an associative montage statues of saints in rigid and rapt poses are cross cut with those of real actors until the two can no longer be told apart. Gradually the real bodies break away from the constraints of their wooden models through increasingly improvised dance. A successful act of liberation from (Catholic) convention, which the material celebrates in an acstasy of multiple exposures and psychedelic colors.
