Workshop
Contact improvisation
March 19 & 20 | 11 am – 3 pm

This workshop pays particular attention to listening to each other, and building on this quality, gives rise to physical communication with one another. The aim is to establish a wakeful sense for the impulses of the partner, to be alert for detail and to channel all this information into the physical interaction. We will be busy with techniques and methods to build a basis for flying, balance and an understanding of the partner’s movement flow, in order to find appropriate responses. My teaching is inspired by games, martial arts and playfulness in general, allowing anyone to experience the joy of contact improvisation.

Workshop led by Maayan Reiter

Artist in Residence
Artist March: Maayan Reiter

This year, the excellent working conditions of ART SPACE stift millstatt are being utilised by several dance artists for research and rehearsal purposes. The season started off with longstanding NETZWERK AKS member Brigitte Büsken, who in her research was busy with “movement on the edge of silence”.
In March, young Israeli artist Maayan Reiter, graduate of SEAD, will start working in Stift Millstatt on her new solo “Let me sleep!”, with dramaturgical assistance by AKS.

Showings: in-formal
March 26 | 8 pm
Let me sleep! (working title)
Maayan Reiter

The presentation format “in-formal” caters to the needs of work in progress. It supports fresh and fragile work and allows artists who are still vulnerable in their process to present themselves to a sensitive audience with their drafts, fragments and questions. This series of studio showings was launched by AKS in 2013 and finds it’s continuation now after the interruption of 2015.

Andrea K. Schlehwein opens Busan International Short Film Festival 2016

photos by Jo Hermann and @Duccio Malagamba

Artist Andrea K. Schlehwein will represent Austria at one of the world’s largest international short film festivals, the Busan International Short Film Festival 2016 (BISFF 2016) in South Korea.

The Austrian Embassy in Seoul and BISFF 2016 have invited AKS to open the festival with her dance film composition ‘INVOCATION’.

In the frame of the Austrian Cultural Event 2016, further performances will take place in the impressive building of Busan Cinema Center, planned by Austrian architectural firm Coop – Himmelb(l)au.

The production team of büro für tanz I theater I produktionen, has used the invitation as an occasion to organise additional events by Andrea K. Schlehwein + NETZWERK AKS, in the spirit of an inter-cultural dialogue between Austria and South Korea, which has been actively pursued since 2012 with several high-quality presentations.

Examples include the dance film installation INTER FACE by AKS, shown in a successful and highly regarded series of performances in the prestigious venue Platoon Kunsthalle Seoul, as well as LIGHT ON – LIGHT OFF no° 7, a selection of the best of Young Korean Choreographers, presented in Stift Millstatt by AKS to an Austrian audience in 2014.

Additional events during Andrea K. Schlehwein’s Korea EX : CHANGE 2016 in April this year include her participation at Seoul International Improvisation Dance Festival 2016, where she will give workshops and theoretical presentations and will participate in panel discussions.

In May 2016, AKS will be in Japan with further specialist contributions in Kyoto and Tokyo.
