Spectrum Space Máté Mészáros with Unusual Symptoms   31.08. – 15.09.2024

Spectrum / Space. Máté Mészáros with Unusual Symptoms

The Hungarian dancer and choreographer Máté Mészáros investigates the interplay between bodies, open spaces and light. He constantly questions how dance can explore a space.

In his latest project, Mészáros engages with the galleries of the Kunsthalle: The dancers of Unusual Symptoms, the dance company of the Theater Bremen, create a dialog with the architecture, the art works, and the audience in various areas of the museum. Space-filling projections by the art collective Urbanscreen give empty museum rooms a surprising new design. The sculptural qualities of choreography can be experienced in the context of exhibition galleries. The audience members can decide for themselves which perspective they would like to take.

In the performances by Máté Mészáros at der Kunsthalle, the realms of museum and dance fold into each other. The movement of dance is not only given a new context, it also opens an entirely new perspective into the architecture of the museum and the works of art on display.

Performance dates:

From 31 August to 15 September 2024, a total of ten live performances will take place at the Kunsthalle Bremen. The performances will be spread across various rooms in the museum. Admission is continuous, so visitors can move freely and come and go at any time.
The visit is included in museum admission. No extra tickets need to be booked.
