William Kentridge & the dress rehearsal for the Holocaust

Met Black Box / Chambre Noire presenteert het Joods Historisch Museum de eerste tentoonstelling van de Zuid-Afrikaanse kunstenaar William Kentridge in Nederland. Een multimediakunstwerk over de eerste volkerenmoord van de twintigste eeuw. Nu te zien in het Joods Historisch Museum.

Gewapend met knuppels slaan twee donkere schimmenfiguurtjes elkaar de hersens in. En vervolgens een derde slachtoffer, knielend en ongewapend, die na de klappen in stukken uiteenspat. Op de achtergrond is muziek van M...

Inertia and extreme duration make Ibrahim Quraishi's "Wild Life Take Away Station" a mysterious still life

Upon entering, Wild Life Take Away Station has been going on for four hours. Two performers - Diego Agulló and Ria Higler, a young man and an old woman - stroll through the Central Museum's project studio like drowsy zombies. They are pale and muscle-naked, apart from their weird slippers and wigs. The two lie sprawled across the sofa,... 

Springdance Journal: "Dutch dance is very well behaved compared to what we have seen here"

Our team agrees: Springdance really took off on Saturday. With Ibrahim Quraishi's installation 'Wildlife Take Away Station' for sure. Reviewer Daniel Bertina made his own recordings, which will appear in his review. And it was even more tasty for him at '(M)imosa. Twenty Looks or Paris is Burning at The Judson Church (M).... 

Via Intolleranza II is an irresistibly witty theatrical chaos about the construction of an opera village.

De vorig jaar aan longkanker overleden Künstler Christoph Schlingensief – alleskunner, provocateur, regisseur, levenskunstenaar – krijgt op het Holland Festival een uitgebreid eerbetoon: de openingsvoorstelling Mea Culpa, een programma met zeven speelfilms, en Schlingensiefs zwanenzang Via Intolleranza II.

Physical theatre, dance and boating on the pond at the Westergasfabriek site

It is occasionally quite chilly on the Westergasfabriek grounds where three Fringe performances are on show. Thursday night, they are Levelless by Theatre Group WAK, Vivarium #3 by LORNA Collective and Kaat by Eva Knibbe, respectively. The cold, however, is no killjoy. The physical jokes in Levelless (or Recht not in Dutch) are a bit like... 

Impressive confrontations in humorous 'K, A Society' by Kris Verdonck #decision

The Dodo International Choice journal, episode 2: Wijbrand Schaap came, saw and was overcome by Kris Verdonck's seven installations about plighted people. It should have ended with terrible bangs, a canned fireworks display a few metres from the spectators. But that's not allowed in the Netherlands since Enschede. And certainly not with Belgian fireworks. Theatre-maker, installation artist and video jockey Kris Verdonck ended up...
