Non-stop performance by Min Tanaka at the National Gallery in Prague
venue: Trade Fair PalaceThe exhibition Photosythesis 1978–1980 by Keiichi Tahara is accompanied by a durational dance performance by Min Tanaka within the space of 5th floor Respirium. Lasting for one week (March 17-25), conducted on a specially constructed stage with a unique arrangement of traveling theatre lights, Tanaka’s minimal, gestural performance is a live act of an exquisite endurance and physical force. As such, it creates a fascinating dialogue with the representation of dancer’s body as documented by Keiichi Tahara’s camera eye 37 years ago…
"If Dance exists without the subject “I,” it would truly be a wonderful model to show our diversity. I then wonder, what is contained in the center of the diversity. Where is the native place of Dance…? And, can we, or Dance ever reach there someday? The quest for me is not too far from a thesis; where on earth humankind is heading toward?"
Min Tanaka
