In his new site-specific dance project WERT, the choreographer Massimo Gerardi concentrates on the juxtaposition of having and being (E. Fromm), as well as establishing a connection to the dichotomy of athlete and artist.
The ‘athlete’ is represented by dynamic, expansive movements, which is predominantly present on stairwells and staircases. Here the urge for self-representation, performance, progress, competition, but also failure is visible. By contrast, stair landings and flat spaces, offer an opportunity for self-recognition, personal questioning and above all, the development of relationship between the two performers. Here the focus is on the ‘artist’. Tonight’s performance was filmed in Salzburg (Austria).
In both situations, the body movement is shaped by the architecture of the performance venue. WERT has been created, adapted and filmed at three locations: the Mathematikum in Giessen, the European Centre of the Arts-Hellerau, Dresden and the Museum der Moderne Salzburg.

Supported by the Performing Arts Fund with funds from the Federal Government for Culture and Media (Germany)

The creation of this work was made possible by a grant from the Cultural Foundation of the Free State of Saxony
