Pina Bausch [exhibition] German choreographer Pina Bausch became a legend in her lifetime. Her gaunt figure is just as unforgettable as her deeply personal, strictly structured choreographies: Gesamtkunstwerk creations in which the dancers spoke, sang and stripped of their personalities, became creative elements in a unique personal vision. The grande dame of modern dance died on June 30 this year, at the age of 68. Bausch, who had many ties to Hungary – she created her first choreography to music by Bartók – spent a longer period here in 1999, and her experiences inspired Wiesenland, created through a rehearsal process in the Trafó and first performed in May 2000 in Budapest’s Vígszínház. The exhibition commemorating the memory of Pina Bausch presents a selection of photographs taken on that occasion.
Organised by the Goethe Institute.
The exhibition is opened weekdays between 9 am and 7 pm from October 9 to 30.
