Description This was the final solo work by the legendary dancer and choreographer Gerhard Bohner (1936-92), one of German dance theatre's most important figures. Bohner's ability to think beyond movement to the creation of space in performance revolutionised the dance world and opened up new dimensions both for himself and his audiences...Cesc Gelabert, a friend of Bohner's, has daringly reconstructed this solo based on videos by Cosima Santoro, not only preserving an exceptional piece of contemporary dance, but also revitalising it with his own powerful individuality as a dancer.
