Pioneers of performance art
Stage icon Tim Etchells and object artist Vlatka Horvat are realising their first joint choreographic work exclusively for Ballett Basel. Etchells is best known as the artistic director of the English performance group Forced Entertainment, one of the UK's most respected theatre groups. His artistic fascination is with the rules and systems in our culture, which he discusses with his audience in a witty way. Horvat, who is designing the Croatian pavilion at the 60th Venice Art Biennale with the overarching theme 'Foreigners Everywhere', explores our belief systems in her work. A dynamic, contemporary work in the interstices of art, choreography and artistic action.
