Sasha Waltz & Guests: “Kreatur”

In her choreographic work, Sasha Waltz has continuously sought for a dialogue with other artists. For her newest choreography, she has been working for the first time with artist and fashion designer Iris van Herpen and light designer Urs Schönebaum - both also create interdisciplinary work and seek an exchange with various artistic-scientific forms. In her visionary, sculptural fashion art, Iris van Herpen combines traditional craftsmanship with digital technology, Urs Schönebaum has developed lighting concepts for theaters, operas, exhibitions, performances and installations worldwide - in addition for artists such as Anselm Kiefer, Robert Wilson or Michael Haneke. Dance, costumes and light are the main elements of this new work, which Sasha Waltz has developed with 14 dancers from her company. For the first time since “Gezeiten” in 2005 at the Schaubühne at Lehniner Platz, Sasha Waltz & Guests are presenting a premiere in Berlin.
