THE AGEING BODY – Alter(n), Körper und Sichtbarkeit | mit Silke Z.

Age(ing) affects us all - throughout our lives. This is precisely why the questions of how age(ing) moves us, how we want to move in old age and how we shape age(ing) are both personal and social questions for artistic practice and cultural education in dance. Age(ing) is a social topic that is often charged with stereotypical ideas that mirror the social ideal of youthfulness and performance. This is where the AGEING BODY project comes in, because the performative arts and formats of cultural education in old age in particular offer scope for addressing the tension between social images of age and attributions, life realities and self-positioning.

THE AGEING BODY is a multi-layered, design-oriented dance art project for - and with - older people. The physical-dance approach to the topics in a non-hierarchical and non-judgemental environment offers the participants freedom to explore, question and experience.
