Corpus Unika

Body and Art

This production is no longer available - see our current repertoire here.

With the unique event Body and Art, Corpus offers a night of experimentation.

Corpus means body, and Corpus is a dance company. It is natural for us to focus on the body – its expression and ability. Therefore, we have invited a number of Danish and international artists to investigate the body and its potential for artistic expression.

The political poet Peter-Clement Woetmann will read brand new texts about the human body. The painter Carl Krull will create a piece of virtual reality art on the night itself. Choreographer/dancer Tilman O'Donnell and musician Mikkel Ploug will explore the work of philosopher Alain Badiou through dance and music.

Composer and performance artist Martin Stauning will present various sound-interventions. Performance artist and Ph.d. Cecilie Ullerup Schmidt will question the body's promise of artistic authenticity and intimacy.

The theatre group 'Cheer Extreme' will perform an excerpt of their successful performance Opvisning i lavt selvværd.

Bring your friends. And their bodies!

About Corpus Unika

Corpus Unika stems from the idea, that our home stage – A-salen – should be a venue for many kinds of art events with only two commonalities. They have to be developed over a very short period of time, and they will only be performed once.

We wish to offer a variety of art experiences curated either by ourselves or in collaboration with artists that inspire us.

Among the previous Corpus Unika Events have been concerts, films, dance improvisation and a 24-hour-performance – just to name a few.

We look forward to seeing all of you!
