(LA)HORDE

Founded in 2013, (LA)HORDE is a collective of three
artists: Marine Brutti, Jonathan Debrouwer, and
Arthur Harel. Together, they challenge the codes
of various artistic disciplines, particularly within the fields
of the performing arts and contemporary art. At the head
of the CCN Ballet National de Marseille since September
2019, (LA)HORDE creates choreographic pieces, films,
video installations, and performances focused on the body
in movement. Using multiple media, they develop scenarios
and actions rooted in contemporary issues; these are then
set in different narrative spaces. (LA)HORDE collaborates
with communities of marginalized individuals—senior
citizens, the visually impaired, smokers, adolescents—
accompanying them on a journey of artistic solidarity.
Opposed to all forms of hierarchy and cultural
appropriation, they focus on interdependence and
cooperation. Concerned and exploratory, they are
on the alert. The body is at the center of their creation.
They create works inspired by different online
communities in an attempt to define how dance has
evolved since the advent of the internet, and have used
the term “post-internet dance” to describe their work.
