The Turning / Adam Rose: Work-in-Progress
May 30, 7:00pm
High Concept Labs
2233 S Throop St
Chicago, IL 60608
Music and performance by
Adam Rose / Antibody Corporation
"The Turning" takes its title from the period in Heidegger's later philosophy known as "die Kehre." Here it suggests the physical action of turning, as well as the mental act of turning: turning against old beliefs, and turning towards something new. The Antibody turns against and against until it comes full circle.
"The Turning" belongs to a larger work-in-progress, "Against Being," which places dance within the context of the philosophical debate between Being and Becoming.
