Taldans ikilisi, ilk Rus Fütürist operası olan “Güneşe Karşı Zafer” adlı eseri, “Rus Avangardı. Sanat ve Tasarımla Geleceği Düşlemek” sergisi kapsamında müzede yeniden yorumluyor. Son dönemdeki işlerinde metin, beden ve ritim arasındaki ilişkiye yoğunlaşan Taldans, sergi mekânında gerçekleştirecekleri Güneşin Zaptıadlı performanslarında 1913 tarihli operayı yine bu bağlamda değerlendiriyor. İkili, Rus Avangardı’nda tüm sanat dallarının bireşimini ortaya çıkarmaya yönelik topyekûn sanat anlayışının en bilinen örneklerinden olan eseri doğrudan yorumlamak yerine dilde ve bedende akışkan bir kurgunun peşine düşüyor.

Taldans kurucuları Mustafa Kaplanve Filiz Sızanlı, 15 yıllık ortak çalışmalarının ardından, ikili olarak sahneye çıktıkları projede, metnin sessel ve imgesel içeriğine sızmayı deniyorlar. Kendi beden dillerini yeniden bir örgü içinde kurgulamanın yollarını araştırıyorlar. Ekip,Güneşin Zaptı’ndaki Fütürist tavrı, sessel malzemenin öne çıktığı koreografik bir yazılımla inceliyor, sesin hareketini inceleyerek, yepyeni bir imla kılavuzu oluşturuyor. Dil ve anlam üzerinden yürütülen matematiksel ve mimari hesaplar yapıyorlar. Söyleyişle müzik arasındaki mesafeyi tartıyor, çeşitli ritimler ve Türk usulleri ile sessel malzemeyi türlü varyasyonlara açmayı deniyorlar. Anlamı oluşturan dizileri bozup yeniden diziyor, geleneksel dili kışkırtarak geleceğin dilini öngörmeyi deniyorlar.

Taldans 2003 yılında kurulan Taldans, birçok uluslararası festivalde eserlerini sergilemektedir. Grubun, Avrupa’dan farklı kültür kurumlarının yapımcı olarak destekleri ile geliştirilen eserleri arasında Dolap (2000), SekSek (2002), Solum (2004), Graf (2006) ve Dokuman (2009), Site (2010), Eskiyeni (2011), Acilen Hareket Etmemiz Lazım (2014), 600 Adım Projesi (2014), X-Apartments (2015), Ritual for a Sensitive Geography (2018) ve DO KU MAN (2018) bulunmaktadır. Kişisel projeler de gerçekleştiren Kaplan ve Sızanlı, uluslararası atölyelerin yanı sıra sanatçı buluşmalarına, panellere ve konferanslara da davet edilmektedir.

Güneşe Karşı Zafer

Librettosu Fütürist şairler Aleksei Kruchenykh ve Velimir Khlebnikov tarafından yazılan, müziğini Mikhail Matyushin’in bestelediği opera Güneşe Karşı Zafer, ilk kez 3 ve 5 Aralık 1913’te St. Petersburg’daki Luna Park Tiyatrosu’nda sahnelendi. Dekor ve kostüm tasarımı Kazimir Malevich tarafından yapılan eser, sahnelendiği senenin en önemli tiyatro ve müzik olaylarından biri oldu. Operanın hikâyesi, Fütüristlerin, yerçekimi ve güneş ışığı gibi doğal unsurlara hükmedilebileceği inancının yansımalarını barındırır. Eserde “güçlü” insanların güneşi uysallaştırarak gökten indirmeleri ve dünyaya yeni bir ışık kaynağı sağlamaları anlatılır. “Rus Avangardı. Sanat ve Tasarımla Geleceği Düşlemek” Sergisi’nde Stas Namin Tiyatrosu’nun Güneşe Karşı Zafer eserine farklı bir yorumu da video kaydıyla yer alıyor.

Katılım müze biletiyle ücretsizdir.

In our current geo-political context, what are the new rituals for encountering the unknown, coming together to affirm powerful, essential values which transcend borders?

Ritual for a Sensitive Geography an invitation to audiences to tiptoe through the construction of their own borders, imaginary, psychic, sensitive and physical, which will be felt in these small group encounters.

Our bodies become our country.

What intercorporal policy are we trying to construct ?

Ritual for a sensitive geography is a series of 3 choreographic installations which allow us to see how each person portrays his or her body and relates to others. With dance movements and words, the dancers accompany the audience in their experiencing of these “choreographic objects,” choreographic practices, simple actions, even children’s games …

Somewhere between installation, performance and audience connection, these rituals address the issue of meeting through space, time and movement.

This project invites spectators to look at dance, to experience a certain state of listening, to be a co‑constructor of the ritual in which each presence has its own influence.The participants experience the building of their own territory, with their own way of reaching out to others.

Wanting to share these rituals of meeting is what Filiz Sizanli and Mustafa Kaplan experienced at Gezi Park on the Place Taksim in Istanbul in 2013.

During a time of violence and repression in which the stakes are life itself, men and women create spaces for meetings and rallies to resist, to encourage exchanges between human beings: sharing a meal, reading to each other, sharing dances, receiving first aid, exchanging books, words, movements, looks. Propositions for rallies and other forms of sharing were organized by artists and citizens, creating a community based on tolerance and exchange.

Could body transform into space, and space into sound? Is something functional always useful? DO KU MAN was born ten years ago when Taldans transformed the workings of a textile factory in Linz to movement, sound, and rhythm. This time around, DO KU MANis on the stage with a larger cast and a fresh interpretation. Kaplan and Sızanlı are the creators of the concept and choreography for the performance. Nine performers/dancers undertake the task of moving the sound, building sound blocks and modular structures around the stage.

NationalTheatreWales_Touch_Poster.jpg

27&28 July 2018
National Theatre Wales & Migrations
​PART OF THE NHS70 FESTIVAL

This tactile piece of theatre draws inspiration from the work of osteopath Julie Nioche and the testimonies of NHS staff members and patients.
Osteopathy works on the principle that the wellbeing of an individual relies on their bones, muscles, ligaments and connective tissue all functioning smoothly together.
Interactive and contemplative, NHS70:Touch will explore the importance of physical touch as part of a patient’s care and treatment.

Touch is being created by a powerhouse of international, national and local artists and organisations; National Theatre Wales, Llanrwst‑based Migrations, French musician Alexandre Meyer and choreographer and dancer Julie Nioche, choreographers Filiz Sizanli and Mustafa Kaplan from Turkey, and a cast of dancers including Laura Dannequin, Angharad Harrop, Cai Tomos and Simon Whitehead.
