Chorus
choros is an exhibition in the form of a meta choreography where six solo choreographies are danced simultaneously during the gallery’s opening hours. The English experimental composer Cornelius Cardew’s score The Tiger’s Mind has been used as a starting-point for the participating choreographers´ artistic works. These have subsequently been translated into asemic writings, texts that have no semantic meaning, which thereafter again are interpreted by the choreographers into six solo works that will be performed in a new relational score. Asemic writings, scores and dance coexist in the same space where a play between the visual, the bodily and the written constantly generates new compositions and meanings in relation to each other. choros is a part of the research project The Curative Act, funded by The Swedish Research Council and Stockholm University of the Arts.

Marabouparken konsthall
Marabouparken konsthall presents contemporary art which reflects the human’s conditions in today’s society and in history. Since 2019 the institution has a new strategic focus on the park as an area of negotiation between nature and the human. The exhibition program is based in today’s need for questioning traditional views on the human’s relation to her surrounding world, in the light of the increasingly urgent questions about our climate and a sustainable use of resources.
