The ballet company of the Gärtnerplatztheater presents two of Cunningham’s choreographies in the Rose Room of Museum Brandhorst. “How To Pass, Kick, Fall and Run” from 1965 is a lively piece with a playful, sporty character, but without any specific reference to any particular sport. The dance is set to one-minute stories read by two performers. “The effect,” said Cunningham, “was a bit like watching a playground full of children with these two crones in the corner talking about things that were completely irrelevant.” The texts are taken from John Cage’s talk “Indeterminacy,” which was held in Brussels in 1958.
The performance accompanies the exhibition “Five Friends: John Cage, Merce Cunningham, Jasper Johns, Robert Rauschenberg, Cy Twombly.”
