SHOWING: BAU HOW

In the organizer's words:

An interdisciplinary research in the field of tension between construction and circus, between craft and humor, between body and material.

In his latest research with the working title BAU HOW, Felix Baumann devotes himself to the roots of his origins: the craft of building. Baumann's interdisciplinary research sees the building site as a playground for performative events - as a place where everyday gestures, actions and accidents at work are taken up, stripped of their functional meaning and transformed into choreographic, circus-like and clownish moments and images. The materials and tools traditionally used to build a house are snatched from the DIY store and the building site and dragged onto the stage to be illuminated in a new light through dance, humor and play. The observations of the construction site processes and material research are supplemented by further research on the subject - including references to the legacy of the Bauhaus movement, art in construction, as well as the construction site humor that can be found in everyday working life and on social media channels. Based on the results of this research in the field of tension between construction and circus, craftsmanship and humor, body and material, architecture and visual arts, the concept of the full-length performance BAU HOW will be developed, which is scheduled to premiere in 2026.
