This new work from the Michael Clark Company evolves from Clark’s admiration for the music of rock’s holy trinity, David Bowie, Iggy Pop and Lou Reed, who worked in close proximity during the 1970s. The production includes Bowie’s iconic song Heroes.
Michael Clark creates work that combines his classical fluency with a twisted contemporary sensibility that embraces embarrassment, doubt and fear, as well as grace, virtue and control.
He is renowned for his legendary collaborations with bands, fashion designers and visual artists including Wire, Bodymap, Leigh Bowery, Trojan and Sarah Lucas.
In 2005 Clark became an Artistic Associate at the Barbican. His last work, Stravinsky Project (bite05-07) was a spectacular dance trilogy set to music by Igor Stravinsky. The production received critical acclaim and toured internationally.
This new work by the Michael Clark Company is presented as part of Dance Umbrella.
