LEFT OVER
by Elenita Queiroz
with Raoul Nagel, Mara Natterer, Boglárka Horváth
Left Over – experiment ♯0 is a scenic experiment; an adventure in which the incidental is the key word and the end result is... a mystery. It brings to the stage the expertise of four talented artists hand in hand with the zero waste philosophy (applied to the art field) to present an unpredictable 40 minutes dance/theater/music performance.

LA ULTIMA
„Der Morgen war ruhig, wie stillgelegt. Hinter dem Dunst tauchten träge die Geräusche und Bewegungen des Erwachens auf. Alles wie immer. Alles wie bisher. Alles so wie es nie wieder sein würde. Mit dem seltsamen Gefühl, dass etwas fehlte. Sie waren verschwunden. Irgendwann, jedenfalls sie, ausser LA ULTIMA.“ (Elenita Queiroz)

48"_one day long
9th December 2017
Imagine that at each 48“ you must to move...
With the age of 37 years old, the performer and contemporary dancer Elenita Queiroz – master student at HKB - realized that she had lived in so many places that, while transforming her age in minutes she found out that every 48 seconds she moved.
Based on this experience, on December 9th, she will travel through different cities of Switzerland showing her road trip performance 48“ 1 day long, which will include St. Gallen, Basel, Bern, Zurich and Winterthur.
Each performance takes 48 seconds long and they will serve to create a teaser and a video dance to promote her dance piece named 48”, which premiere will be held in February 2018 in Bern and St.Gallen. She travels accompanied by a group of talented artists: Kim Schläpfer - videoartist, Mischa Herzog – photographer and Alena Kundela – art assistant.
Be aware, the 48” 1 day long can pass by you in a glance.

What is contemporary dance?
Contemporary Dance was developed in the early 20th century as a reaction against the rigid techniques of ballet and nowadays it includes a range of techniques and styles. Pioneers such as Isadora Duncan and Martha Graham searched for ease of movement using the body’s natural lines and energy, allowing a greater range of fluidity of movement than conventional dance techniques. Contemporary Dance is characterized by its versatility: contemporary can be danced to almost any style of music, or united with other dance forms to create new styles of movement. Contemporary seeks to work with the natural alignment of the body, and is therefore safe and accessible for beginners. At the same time, the ease of movement promoted by contemporary dance technique allows experienced dancers to push new boundaries of body movement.

EXPERIENCE THE BEAT OF BRAZILIAN DANCE
Introductory workshop with Elenita Queiróz (Brasil)
This workshop aims to share the basic elements of the body movements from Brazilian
dances. The body work is focused on the perception of the relationship between feet and hip, as well as the spirals and circular lines that run through the body. These elements act as the basis
for the development of improvisation and choreographic phrases that we will play with. Be prepared for good Brazilian flavor, vivid rhythms and a lot of fun!
