Halle G wie Gudrun
On six afternoons, choreographer Doris Uhlich, musician Boris Kopeinig and people interested in movement from Augustin, Obdach Forum and integration wien will meet in the spotlight of Hall G. The group will explore movement and voice research by Doris Uhlich and sound experiments by Boris Kopeinig. The result will be a pool of physical actions, singing and sound, from which a showing will be created on the final day. The group also experiments with objects made for reuse by Ursula Klein/schulteswien. The inflatable and transparent air objects constantly change their forms and states. What unites the group and all of us is transformation.
