Hexaptycher Tanz
2022 – Cologne
Choreography and Dance:
Miriam Arnold & Maria Sauerland
Camera Vernissage: Willi Reinecke
Supported by: CO3 Off Space and the ministry of Culture of the City of Cologne
Hexaptycher Tanz is a dance performance, developed by Miriam Arnold and Maria Sauerland for the vernissage and finnisage of the installation Hexaptycher Tanz of the visual artist Robert Abrahamyan Abmanb in march and april 2022.
In his work, the Armenian artist Robert Abrahamyan synthesizes elements from various religions, which are questioned as to their ritual character.
The exhibition at CO³ Off Space showed lithographs and drawings by him accompanied by his manifesto “The Bible of Contemporary Art”.
With a new interpretation of the dervish dances by the two choreographers and dancers at the vernissage and finissage of the exhibition, the connections between the arts on the one hand and between the religions on the other hand were made.
