URBAN BODIES PROJECT - Munich

Sound Walk and Performance Project in Public Spaces
Concept and Choreography: Yolanda Gutiérrez
Dancers: David Valencia and Jana Baldovino
Funded by: Käte-Hamburger Kolleg (global-disconnect), der Ludwig-Maximilian Universität München and Bundesministerium für Bildung und Forschung
Fotodokumentation: Felix Ehlers

The URBAN BODIES PROJECT is an ongoing artistic, urban and dance exploration of the city’s colonial past, each time the project takes place. The URBAN BODIES PROJECT-MUNICH is the seventh URBAN BODIES project by Hamburg-based choreographer Yolanda Gutiérrez.
The audience listens to audio files – a mixture of historical facts, personal biographies, music, soundscapes and interviews – through headphones as they move from place to place. A performative utopia of dance will emerge, in which urban space is occupied and intervened with dance and bodies. History becomes present and memorials in Munich become visible.
