Projects
A SHIFTS PROJECT FEELS LIKE A STRIKING OUT ON NEW PATHS
and each project starts with a desire for exploration and often with the urge to change a point of view or a preconception. A project may be the beginning for a new chapter of research, eventually leading to a production, it may be a commission or a mission that shifts have stated themselves, striving for new encounters, discovering new territories and challenging the places where ideas of movement have frozen. Here we have a journal of various choreographic activities, and reflections on movement. The works on tour you can find in the repertory section.
Eulogy to the shade
During the Summer 2008 the two choreographers Malgven Gerbes and David Brandstätter travelled together with the video artist Julien Crépieux and the sound designer Christoph Engelke for two months through South Korea and Japan. Together with local artists they organised each day a site-specific performance in a new environment. Eulogy to the shade is the movie that documents this travel.During the Summer 2008 the two choreographers Malgven Gerbes and David Brandstätter travelled together with the video artist Julien Crépieux and the sound designer Christoph Engelke for two months through South Korea and Japan.
