LEVÉE DES CONFLITS . 2015

A performance created and directed by Boris Charmatz

For two days only, in collaboration with dancer and choreographer Boris Charmatz, around 90 dancers and choreographers took over the gallery spaces and the iconic Turbine Hall at Tate Modern.

Levée des conflits was first performed in 2010. For this extended version, the work is performed continuously over several hours by 24 dancers.

Comprising 25 movements, each movement is passed on from body to body, excluding one gesture at all time.

Visitors are invited to learn part of the piece with Boris Charmatz and the 24 dancers and perform it live.

Performed and filmed live at Tate Modern, London
