LUNA PARK / Kosmas Kosmopoulos
LUNA PARK presents, in cooperation with Weinmeisterhaus e.V., the performance "Lessen to the fourth", which was created in 2015 with young Greek dancers in Athens. The performance articulates, often in an ironic mode, a critique towards certain, essential and yet trivial concepts such as, the homeland, the religion and the family in a period of an economical and social crisis. The work's style is minimalist, tracing the dynamics derived by the individual. Hence, the key element of the choreography is to stretch the temporal value in order to cast emphasis upon those details that constitute the cocoon of a genuine dance form.
