Performance in relation to the exhibition resonance

Lars Eijssen (NL, 1967) employs song, dance, fashion, light and styling in his performances. If Romanticism in the 19th century was a reaction to the Industrial Revolution and Enlightenment, today authentic experience is a reaction to the dumbing down of our visual culture. Eijssen does not let go of the visual language of our hyper-styled reality, but hopes, through the complete surrender of song and dance, to free up equally intense feelings in the viewer. Lars Eijssen will be making a new performance for Resonance, Flower Piece #1: the Effort, in which the elements will be arranged like a bouquet. The singers, dancers and the decor melt together into a moving painting.
