Le chant du psychophone
One-on-One-Performance by Antonia Baehr
23 February, 2 – 8 pm
Registration online and on site according to availability of places (fully booked)
Le chant du psychophone is an encounter between visitor and performer, one on one, tête-à-tête, spatially separated and intimate, humorous and surprising. The performance acoustically, haptically, and visually invites visitors to make contact with the infinitely near and far. With this work, which will be presented in Germany for the first time, Antonia Baehr continues her choreographic and performative research into face and faciality.
