Studio Matsune, Pernerstorfergasse 5/B4, 4. Stock, 1100 Wien
The brut series Handle with Care invites audiences and colleagues to see and discuss initial sketches of a new work, make rehearsal processes more open and create space for dialogue and exchange. Artists try out parts of their work in front of a small audience that responds instantly and thus becomes a partner in crime. During imagetanz, there are two Handle with Care special editions, as young artists, namely Andrea Gunnlaugsdóttir and Sööt/Zeyringer, open their studio for visitors and present insights into the creative process of devising their pieces.
In her project Out of My Mind, Andrea Gunnlaugsdóttir takes visitors through her memories and thoughts. Her starting point of her artistic research is to explore the statement of writer John Berger: “What is remembered has been saved from nothingness.” Through movements, images and stories, Gunnlaugsdóttir examines how things we experienced is inscribed into our body and leads the audience on an intimate journey into a dance of doubts. The project is developed in collaboration with performance artist Michikazu Matsune.
Originally from Iceland, Andrea Gunnlaugsdóttir studied choreography at the SEAD Salzburg Experimental Academy of Dance and worked as a dancer in Doris Uhlich’s piece more than naked and as a dancer and artistic assistant to Michikazu Matsune. She has already presented some of her own works and received the start stipend of the Austria’s Federal Chancellery in 2015.
