All Around

Mette Ingvartsen
Will Guthrie

In 2020, Dance Reflections by Van Cleef & Arpels is supporting the Festival d'Automne à Paris for the presentation of All Around by Mette Ingvartsen and Will Guthrie at the Palais de la Découverte.

Danish choreographer and dancer Mette Ingvartsen and Australian drummer and percussionist Will Guthrie have been following each other’s work and collaborating remotely for several years. In 2020 in Paris, they will be performing onstage together for the very first time.

Members of the audience encircle a stage space taken up by a drum set, a moving light and the bodies of the performers. Using a minimal, repetitive vocabulary, the two artists embark on a duo which brings together their different disciplines and fuses the various shapes. Rotations and gyrations, rhythm and speed, clarity and obscurity become the main components of a performance that culminates in an ecstatic form of intensity, bordering on trance.
