(translated: Fruitless Blossom)
from the series “ImPuls der Suite”
The program focuses on two fascinating female artists from around 1600: the Japanese dancer and theater maker Izumo no Okuni and the Italian composer Isabella Leonarda. They lived in an era when women enjoyed considerable artistic freedom, before the arts became increasingly reserved for men.
The combination of baroque music and contemporary dance traces the lives of these two extraordinary personalities.
The program “Flos Vanus – Adabana” tells of the fleeting blossoms of art, of extroverted madness and spiritual asceticism, celebrating the creativity of women who were ahead of their time.
