ImPulsTanz Presents
Dance Films and Music Videos
July 12 to 28, 2024
It is by now a beautiful tradition that ImPulsTanz – Vienna International Dance Festival, which has been bringing contemporary dance and performance from around the world to Vienna since 1984, presents filmic examples of artistic sectors at the Film Museum. This year, the program put together by ImPulsTanz offers special glimpses into the scope of contemporary choreography and how it plays with the camera, from the latest music videos to filmic adaptations of site-specific works and portraits of major artists: DuEls closely follows a dance performance in a museum, Eszter Salamon confronts the famous grotesque dancer of modernity, Valeska Gert, with historically loaded architecture, and nora chipaumire shows us what happens backstage at one of their performances, afro-futuristic characters and a homage to the Grande Dame of contemporary African dance, Germaine Acogny. In 1981 Robert Dornheim had, in turn, already made a filmic monument to the daughter of Vaslav Nijinsky, Kyra Nijinsky. (Andrea Pollach / Translation: Ted Fendt)
