Dimitri Chamblas: Slow Show

Sat, Feb 5, 1 pm & 2 pm
With the support of Villa Albertine, in partnership with the French Embassy; Alliance Française; and The Cowles Center
Como Lake

Dancer/choreographer Dimitri Chamblas’ Slow Show is a 20-minute intensive, collective dance whose movements are minute, precise, and concentrated—inspired by principal roots of trance, exultation, telepathy, and unconscious memories. In this iteration, 50 local participants will respond to their immediate environment on a frozen Como Lake, revealing the strength and vivacity of subtle movements with real-time sound accompaniment made of samples, live electronics, and guitar by artist Eddie Ruscha.

Please note: Masks and social distancing are strongly encouraged during the performance.
