Boris Charmatz Launches Performance Cycle at Bozar

On 11 and 12 October, we welcome dancer and choreographer Boris Charmatz for a double performance in our Horta Hall.

For Bozar, Charmatz selected two key works from his oeuvre. Charmatz' two choreographies resonate strongly with the themes present in the expo Love is Louder, from 12 October on at Bozar. Love and desire are basic motifs in the two performances. In herses, duo, desire for the other body becomes the driving force behind a sculptural and physical dance. Boris Charmatz will perform this choreography himself and intertwine with Johanna Elisa Lemke. In Aatt enen tionon, the connection between the three dancers is complicated, but they build a relationship through choreography.

Boris Charmatz (°1973) is not only a dancer and choreographer but also the creator of experimental projects and, since 2022, the director of Tanztheater Wuppertal. This makes him one of the most important figures in contemporary dance art.
