Workshops With Máté Mészáros: Perform Europe in Warsaw

  • Partnering workshops with Máté Mészáros – world-renowned dancer and choreographer, nominated in the Aerowaves Twenty20 selection.*

Máté about the workshop:
 We will have three hours of skill training – we will jump and roll and bend, learn skills that will help dancers to excel in any kind of dance that they endeavour.
 The workshop will be mainly focused on partnering, but we will also be laying some useful bricks into the dancers’ set so that they can get closer to their own body and movement without stressing, exhausting it – which doesn’t mean that it will not be highly physical.
 My aim is that through the workshop we make our body more permeable, accessible while looking after our joints and nodes.
 We will concentrate on the physical side of movement – the action-reaction correlation of bodies, without any decorative, aesthetic attributes.
We’ll follow the motto by Forsythe: dance is organized falling.
 And we’ll have a lot of fun, while experiencing our body attempting at something that we never thought would be possible.

He has created choreographies – Hinoki, United Space of Ambivalence and Mechanics of Distance – this latter was in the Aerowaves Twenty20 selection. All his works toured extensively around the continent and overseas. He is a regular guest choreographer of various European dance companies and theaters and gives partnering workshops.

Perform Europe is an EU-funded project aimed to rethink how performing arts works are presented across borders in a more inclusive, sustainable and balanced way by testing new touring and distribution practices and providing policy recommendations for a future EU support scheme. This 18-month journey includes a research phase, launching a digital platform, testing a support scheme, and designing policy recommendations. Perform Europe is funded by the Creative Europe Programme of the European Union and co-managed by a Consortium of 5 organisations: IETM – International network for contemporary performing arts, the European Festivals Association (EFA), Circostrada, EDN – European Dancehouse Network, and IDEA Consult.
