PLATAFORMA BERLIN 2024:: ¿Qué puede un cuerpo?

Cuatro x Cuatro

¿Qué puede un cuerpo?

¿Qué puede un cuerpo?

LEIB is a performative investigation that uses the body as the basis for sensitive thinking and encounters with the other, with the world, and that deals with four questions: What can a body do? What does a body want? What can a body endure? What does a body forget? These questions move between the abstraction of Spinoza and Nietzsche and the knowledge that the members of the collectives of the disappeared in Mexico have. A knowledge between the limits of empirical, mystical and metaphysical experience and science, between intuition and technology, between premonition and knowledge.

 

LEIB is a CONJURO that finds in artistic practice the ideal territory for growth, it seeks to evoke polyvocal and collective physicalities that whisper with the wind, with dreams, with the night, with trees and flowers, with the sun. In dance it finds a vital place where another world is possible, or at least the way to perceive and relate to it. LEIB is CONJURO for all those who have disappeared to return home.

Sleep Now In The Fire

Todd Tourso / USA

 

 

The short film directed by Todd Tourso explores the concept of liberation theology and was inspired by Tourso’s work with Rage Against The Machine. Christianity is a source of hope, strength, and identity for a large part of the world’s population and its iconography changed the art, beliefs and traditions of many native cultures. Western religion is also one of the greatest tools of oppression. The Crusades were the blueprint for the colonization of the Americas. „Sleep Now In The Fire“ reframes the archetypal story of a suffering God resurrected, into a metaphor for the liberation of the poor and politically oppressed. Shot on location in Tlalnepantla, Desierto de los Leones, Nezahualcoyotl, Chimalhuacan, and Playa Chacalacas during the summer of 2022; the film is a visual meditation on death, rebirth, and resilience.

 

Todd Tourso is a director, filmmaker and art director based in Los Angeles, USA.

 

 

 

Carbón para encender el fuego

Regina Jose Galindo

 

 

Every war brings us closer to darkness

standing

in the middle of a coal volcano

in the midst of uncertainty

in the middle of a conflict

every war separates us from humanity

and brings us closer to death

and in death

in violent death

there is no light.

 

 

Commissioned and produced by PAV Torino, Italy 2022
