“All Good Spies Are My Age”. Juan Domínguez

by

On this occasion I invite you to experience the before, during and after of a work’s production, and all of that simultaneously. I propose that you should spy on the intervals between the emergence of ideas for choreographies and the choreography of these ideas. The actions emphasise the relations between the writing and the reading of the work itself within the galaxy of hallucinations, the world of dreams, the space of the imagination – or will it be in the space of thoughts that we are going to find an intimate contact? Is it him? Is it you? Is it me?
