SILK Fluegge

Silke Grabinger (AT)

SILK Fluegge is an artists’ collective doing contemporary urban dance and art. The collective’s artistic activities include performances in theaters, interventions in museums and public spaces, and mediating audiences’ encounters with art and culture. The company focuses on projects in the area of contemporary, urban forms of dance and art, with particular emphasis on fostering young artists. At this year’s Big Concert Night, Silke Grabinger will be responsible for the dance performance.

Under her direction, SILK Fluegge featuring dancers Elias Choi Buttinger and Gergely Dudas will develop a performance to accompany “Symphonie fantastique” by Hector Berlioz. The dancers—costumed by Bianca Fladerer—will perform a highly visual dance that touches on robotics, digital technology, the body and the organism, and seeks what is natural in the machine and perfectionism in the human body. The question that arises has to do with the quality of imperfection.
