Tanzpol Mentoring-Programm mit Ali Moini

Das diesjährige tanzpol Mentoring-Programm zu Tanz, Choreographie und Performance für professionell arbeitende Künstler*innen aus Afghanistan lädt dazu ein, die eigene künstlerische Praxis zu reflektieren und weiterzuentwickeln. Der zweite Block des Programms wird von Ali Moini begleitet.

🤔Wer ist Ali Moini ?

Ali Moini, ein in Paris lebender iranischer Künstler, studierte Theater und arbeitete zunächst als Schauspieler im Iran. Berührungen mit zeitgenössischem Tanz in Europa führten jedoch zu einer grundlegenden Veränderung seines künstlerischen Schwerpunktes. Mit seinem Hintergrund in Musik und Theater betrachtet Ali Körperlichkeit und Bewegung als essenzielle künstlerische Mittel. Häufig integriert er Objekte, Maschinen und Materialien in seine Arbeiten. Sein kreativer Prozess wird von offenen Fragen, (technischen) Herausforderungen und dem Unbekannten angetrieben und stützt sich weniger auf künstlerische Konventionen. Obwohl seine Arbeit nicht explizit politisch ist, zeigt sie ein nuanciertes Verständnis für politische Themen und für die Welt, in der wir leben.

Meet Our Mentor: Sandra Noeth

Sandra Noeth is a professor at the HZT Inter-University Centre for Dance Berlin and works internationally as a curator in independent and international contexts. For more than twenty years she has accompanied artists as a dramaturge in their research and working processes; from 2009-14 as head dramaturge at Tanzquartier Wien. In her dramaturgical practice and various mentoring projects, she is particularly concerned with strategies of collective learning and working in the arts, and with working methods that are developed outside the western canon. Her own research and publication projects often aim to bring together knowledge from different artistic, social, political and activist fields and disciplines to reflect on current socio-political developments. Recent projects focused the role, status and agency of bodies in bordering processes; the relation between arts, bodies and unequal politics of protection; the embodiment of violence; the performativity of class dynamics in arts as well as the ambivalent status of the body in international humanitarian law. Sandra worked as an educator with SKH-Stockholm University of the Arts and Ashkal Alwan Beirut, among others. She is the author of Resilient Bodies, Residual Effects. Borders and Collectivity from Lebanon and Palestine (transcript, 2019) as well as a co-editor of Breathe. Critical Investigations into the Inequalities of Life (with J. Janša, 2023) and Shielding: Body-based Studies on Integrity and Protextion (with J. Janša and S. Umathum, 2024).

Languages: English, French and German.

Meet Our Mentor: Ali Moini

Ali Moini, an Iranian artist based in Paris, studied theater and worked as an actor in Iran. However, his exposure to contemporary dance in Europe shifted his focus, leading him away from text-based performances. He chose to explore choreography and moved to Lisbon to study Choreographic Creation and Research in Contemporary Dance, where he worked with artists such as João Fiadeiro, Lisa Nelson, Deborah Hay, and Meg Stuart. In 2010, he relocated to France to further his studies in choreography and performance in Angers. His shows have been presented in Europe, North America, and South Korea at venues such as Centre Pompidou, New York Live Arts, Villa Medici, and Montpellier Danse. With a background in music and theater, he believes that the body and movement are as vital as any other artistic tools. He frequently incorporates objects, machinery, and materials into his work. His creative process is driven by questions, challenges, and the unknown, rather than relying on familiar skills or artistic conventions. His expanding knowledge in science, social sciences, and gender studies also informs his artistic practice. While his work may not be overtly political, it reflects a nuanced understanding of these themes and the world we live in. Currently, he is engaged in a new project while also assisting individuals with disabilities, including autism, and leading creative movement workshops for seniors. These initiatives are purely focused on social engagement, aiming to directly address social issues rather than produce art. Additionally, he supports emerging Iranian artists by organizing workshops and facilitating their access to residencies through a project called Mentora. This initiative helps them develop solo performances under the guidance of professional mentors, providing them with the same financial, logistical, and production conditions as artists in Europe.

Meet Our Mentor:
hoomansharifi1

Hooman Sharifi was born in Tehran in 1973 and came alone to Norway at the age of 15. His dancing career began with hip-hop in his teens and continued with classical and modern ballet in his twenties. He graduated in choreography at the Oslo National Academy of the Arts and is particularly interested in the artistic expression found at the intersection between dance, theater and visual arts. In 2000, he founded his own company, Impure Company, which in its art focuses on social engagement and politics and has created over thirty dance works since its inception. Physically challenging, intense and powerful, Sharifi’s movement language explores the emotions and structures behind hierarchies, power, political systems and violence, through precise movements and stage effects.
From 2014 to 2018, Sharifi was artistic director of Norway’s national contemporary dance company, Carte Blanche in Bergen, where he programmed works such as Birthmark, We Are Here Together, Soufflette and Jerada. His own works include Shadows Remain Silent, which premiered on Den Norske Opera’s main stage in 2014, and While They Are Floating. Sharifi has collaborated with several large institutions and his works have achieved great success in Norway and internationally.

Languages: English, Farsi and Norwegian.

TANZPOL - DANCE AND PERFORMANCE FESTIVAL

The tanzpol Festival starts tomorrow! ✨ Hosted by Sophiensæle and Uferstudios Berlin, the festival
creates visibility for dance art related to countries where dance on stage is not free and taken for granted.

This year’s festival () invites you to experience contemporary dance and performance by Afghan and Iranian artists in Europe.

🗓️ 23.05. - 02.06.2024
📍 and

The festival programme confronts the complex nature of the term „exile“ on an artistic level and in discussion formats. The performances give impulses to think about possible alliances and the shaping of a togetherness that does not have to be conflict-free, but can be humorous and contradictory and arouse curiosity.

Through interactive formats, gatherings, interdisciplinary concert-dance performances, three workshops and two panel discussions, tanzpol
invites you to enter into dialogue, listen and get to know each other. 

With:
Tara Fatehi (), Pouya Ehsaei, Ali Moini, Roza Moshtaghi, Mostafa Shabkhan, Cédric Cherdel, Afrang Malekian, Ulduz Ahmandzadeh, Elnaz Sheshgelani, Sepideh Khodarahmi

Curated by Ashkan Afsharian (.afsharian) & Johanna Kasperowitsch  

The festival is founded by Senate Department for Culture and Social Cohesion and with funds from The Capital Cultural Fund
(Hauptstadtkulturfonds) and Goethe-Institut im Exil. With kind support of the Institut français and the French Ministry of Culture, International Theater Institute Germany (ITI).

Während des tanzpol Festivals zeigt Ali Moini, Choreograf und Performer, seine Performance „MAN ANAM KE ROSTAM BOVAD PAHLAVAN”, in die er mit einer großen Marionette durch ein Flaschenzugsystem interagiert. Karabinerhaken und Flaschenzüge, die durch ein komplexes System von Seilen miteinander verbunden sind, bilden, zusammen mit dem Performer und der Metallpuppe, einen co-abhängigen Dreiklang. Die jeweiligen Rollen zwischen Manipulator und Doppelgänger verblassen, die Identitäten und Zuschreibungen auch.
Nach der ersten Aufführung am 26. Mai gibt es ein Publikumsgespräch mit Ali Moini auf Englisch.
