+ Terrain Boris Charmatz - Nelken - T0209689275

A signature work by Pina Bausch, Nelken (Carnations) is a pinnacle in Tanztheater Wuppertal's repertoire. Amplified by a new generation of performers, this bouquet of dance is an ode to the beauty of dancing bodies. In the history of dance, few creations bear the stamp of genius. Nelken, premiered in 1982, is one of them. In a huge field of 8000 carnations, the ensemble deploys the seasons, moves from chair to chair, displays its virtuosity with a nod to classical forms. The work conveys a world view that is tragic and cruel, but also tender and overflowing with a humanity that has touched audiences all over the world. Certain passages, such as the "Nelken Line," have become iconic. Beauty blossoms here at every moment.
