Performances: Doppel-Chess

Come and enjoy our interactive performance Doppel-Chess, designed by Olatz de Andrés as a dialogue between dance, chess, and the visual arts.
To Portuguese painter Maria Helena Vieira da Silva, chess was a valid tool for rational analysis and the development of intelligence skills, and could be extended to creative disciplines like dance.
Performed by Lokke Dance Company, Doppel-Chess has two central themes: chess and movement. Two bodies that merge through their own acts and chess pieces that move in connection with Vieira da Silva’s oeuvre and the stunning architecture of the Museum’s Atrium.
Duration: 15 min.

The Museum is screening a series of documentaries and fiction films selected in connection with the exhibition Arts of the Earth. The films encourage reflection on man’s ways of living on Earth – past, present, and future – by telling stories in which culture and nature are intertwined.
Aboriginal wisdom as a form of resistance against deforestation of the Amazon rainforest; the intervention of Victorian naturalists on Ascension Island; a fable in which humans must hibernate if they are to live; the rural world in the so-called “emptied Spain”; the life of a beekeeper in Macedonia… These are some of the stories and topics discussed in the films. On Thursday 19 and Friday 20, the films will be followed by talks with directors Anna Cornudella Castro and Juan Palacios, respectively (*).
