Reshuffling Relations: You Come, We Show You What We Do – Anna “Pippi” Wallin & CI Folks (performance)
2026-03-15
2026-03-15 14:00-16:00
This is an invitation to experience the practice of Contact Improvisation within the community of Malmö – with a long history of sharing, experimenting, and connecting through movement in contact. It is a practice of touch, weight sharing, listening, and improvising with the space between us.
This performance and exhibition of a practice is also a historical reference to the first time Steve Paxton shared Contact Improvisation publicly, at a gallery on Manhattan in New York, during 5 hours per day, five days in a row – having dancers just practicing in the gallery while audience could witness them the way you do in an art exhibition.
This moment serves both as an invitation to newcomers to witness what contact improvisation is, for all to witness it as an art form — and as a celebration of our members’ ongoing exploration.
