Il faut être léger comme l'oiseau et non comme la plume.
Paul Valéry

To meet Pina Bausch (who died yesterday) was to understand why her choreography was so transcendent for the C20th dance world. She would fix you with her gaze, looking deep into your eyes as she listened to what your body was speaking. Most importantly when it was at rest. For Bausch the question was always why does one move at all not how do we make dance? What is that impetus within us? And often the urge was painfully and absurdly funny.

Swedish artist Johanna Billing has been commissioned to make a new film I'm Lost Without Your Rhythm which is the second project in the 3 Series; a collaboration between Camden Arts Centre, Modern Art Oxford and Arnolfini. Her new work is based around the recording of a live performance of dance ‘learned’ or performed by amateur Romanian dancers in Iasi (pronounced ‘yash’). Magical World (2005) is showing as part of As Long as it Lasts at Marian Goodman in New York.
