CPR Demonstrations, talks and seminars SUMMER SHIFT OPEN EVENING LECTURE/DEMONSTRATION - SIMON THORNE & INGRID VON WANTOCH REKOWSKI [July 2007]
Cyfle i ddysgu mwy am waith y cyfansoddwr Simon Thorne sy’n gweithio yng Nghaerdydd a’r cyfarwyddwr blaengar, Ingrid von Wantoch Rekowski. Simon Thorne is a composer, musician and theatre maker. He was a founder director of Man Act, which, in its time was acknowledged across the globe for its highly charged physical theatre, and its groundbreaking exploration of masculinity. He is also one of the founder members of the Wales Jazz Composers Orchestra. He has recently received a prestigious Creative Wales Award from the Arts Council of Wales to explore new approaches to music-theatre. Ingrid von Wantoch Rekowski creates living pictures. Through her company Lucilia Caesar, she has created a new drama working with harmonies, images, and structures; where the bodies of the performers merge into a collective monstrous being that is both frightening and erotic. The dynamics of her work borrow from musical forms, human solos, polyphonies, exposing human passion without the psychological connotations. Artistic conventions are twisted and become unclassifiable. The spectator can dream and imagine, freed of focusing on an outcome.
