Path to Recreation

October, 2013

 

Project by nüans (Anna Heidenhain, Elmar Hermann, Maki Umehara) / The Story of Hayy in Tokyo / performance and screening / Konnoh Hachiman Shrine, Shibuya, Tokyo, Japan

Death of somebody you love; on the one hand this means despair, on the other hand you might find breath of life there. Following the Sicily and Istanbul-Volume, we have finally reached the stage on PATHS TO RECREATION -a Tokyo-Volume of the THE STORY OF HAYY -an interdisciplinary musical series by artist collective nüans. It is hosted by the Dog House in Shibuya that was created by conceptual artist Joseph Kosuth as a symbol of love after the death of Mr. Joni Waka’s dog.

Isolation, survival and self-teaching are topics for our residence at The Dog House, a laboratory to explore recreation and wisdom. In cooperation with Berlin- based musician sub-tle. we present a new moment that focuses on temporary interaction between dance, music and video. Rethinking the origin and future of cultural values in modern society, PATHS TO RECREATION will be produced for a public event at Konnoh Hachimangu Shrine in Shibuya.
