Still of “Trio Film” by Yvonne Rainer, Camera: Phill Niblock, with the courtsey of Video Data Bank

In the early 1960s in New York Judson Dance Theater breaks the rules of ballet and modern dance while interlacing with the experimental New York Underground Cinema. Material for movement and pictures originates of everyday life – fragmentarily, unpretentiously or playfully assembled in collages.
POOL dedicates one evening to the film-choreographic experiments of the New York scene and follows the traces of the avantgarde movements from the early 60s to 80s. Amongst others Yvonne Rainer’s „Trio Film“ with Steve Paxton and Becky Arnold, “Annie” by Phill Niblock, “The Girl Can’t Help It” and “Champing at the bit” by Yoshiko Chuma, “Inside the House of Floating Paper” by Pooh Kaye as well as Henry Hills’ „Money“ will be screened. In addition an exhibition will offer further material during the festival days.

With an introduction of Yoshiko Chuma.

Zu Beginn der 60er bricht das Judson Dance Theater in New York mit den Regeln des Balletts und des Modern Dance; und trifft gleichzeitig auf das experimentelle New Yorker Underground Cinema. Bewegungs- und Bildmaterial entspringt dem Alltag – fragmentarisch, unaufgeregt oder spielerisch zu Collagen montiert. POOL widmet einen Abend den film-choreographischen Experimenten der New Yorker Szene und folgt den Spuren der Avantgardebewegungen der frühen 60er Jahre bis in die 80er hinein. Gezeigt werden unter anderem die Filme „Annie“ von Phill Niblock, „Trio Film“ von Yvonne Rainer, “The Girl Can’t Help It” und “Champing at a bit” von Yoshiko Chuma, “Inside the House of Floating Paper” von Pooh Kaye sowie „Money“ von Henry Hills. Darüber hinaus bietet eine Ausstellung während der Festivaltage weiterführendes Material.

Mit einer Einführung von Yoshiko Chuma.
