Premiere of Orbis Pictus in Ponec Theatre / 27. + 28. 11.

On November 27 and 28 at 8 pm at Ponec Theatre, NANOHACH company and Tanec Praha will premiere a choreography co-created by a leading Czech dance company NANOHACH & Lenka Bartůňková and Michal Záhora. The latter will get back on stage after two years, which he spent heading the Prague Conservatory Duncan Centre. A feature dance duet, inspired by Carl Gustav Jung's Red Book deconstructs the natural aspects of humanness through conscious and unconscious binary concepts. Orbis Pictus is an introspective dance journey playing on images of collective unconsciousness. The choreography escalates the intensity of the message through minimalist scenic design. The expressivity of the means applied is mostly based on working with one's own physicality and resigning on the need to overload the audience with extra decorations or effects.
The moment that is my life and the reflection of my world.” This duet, inspired by Carl Gustav Jung's Red Book deconstructs the naturalness of humanness through conscious and unconscious binary concepts. We can't reach transcendence only because we are not able to define ourselves in any other way but in differing from the others. Orbis Pictus is an introspective dance journey plying on images of collective unconsciousness. “My speech is imperfect. Not because I want to shine with words, but out of the impossibility of finding those words, I speak in images. In no other way am I able to pronounce the words of the depth.“ Concept and Choreography: NANOHACH & Lenka Bartůňková / Michal Záhora
