Mal Pelo plans a second gathering in 2018, taking as its starting point the research María Muñoz did for her solo Bach, a piece that has won world-wide acclaim. This laboratory invites us to bring into play the worlds of dance and the musical counterpoint of Johann Sebastian Bach. It is a piece about looking with precision, about movement and about the musicality of each of the bodies exploring the composer’s unique world.
Mal Pelo’s performance language is constantly changing and is nourished by their individual and collective search for the expressive potential of each of the tools at their disposal: body, text, audiovisual, lighting, sound and set. In the work of María Muñoz and Pep Ramis we find different approaches to the language of movement and its combinations with other languages, but there is always a specific centring on the body and movement that is deep and engaged.
This laboratory will take place behind closed doors with guest performers and creators for two weeks, with a public performance at the end of each: at 7pm on Friday 25th May and Friday 1st June at L’animal a l’esquena
