Handa Gote Research & Development
Thursday, February 8, 4:15
112 S Michigan Avenue, 2M Space
(take rear elevator or stairs on floor 1 or 4)
Since 2005, Handa Gote Research & Development has worked on the boundaries between theatre, contemporary dance, the visual arts, music, performance and conceptual art. The ensemble is interested in the concept of post-dramatic and post-spectacular theatre, non-linear narratives, and the application of experiences from contemporary music and visual arts within theatre. Its performances involve the creative use of technology – both old technology and the most modern available. In most of its projects, the ensemble works with media archeology; its documentary theatre works intensively focus on “small (personal) histories”.
Handa Gote’s artist talk is co-sponsored by Art & Technology Studies, Performance, Photography, and the graduate division. They are in Chicago as part of an international exchange with performance collectives ATOM-r and Every House Has a Door that is supported by a grant from Trust for Mutual Understanding.
