25 Ausstellung / Exhibition „Solo = Alleine“ Tanzfotografien von Gert Weigelt 08.02. – 16.05.2021

Gerhard Bohner / photo: Gert Weigelt In der Fotoausstellung des ehemaligen Tänzers und Tanz- fotografen Gert Weigelt, der 2019 als erster Fotograf den Deutschen Tanzpreis erhielt, geht es um den Solotanz. Bis auf zwei Ausnahmen sind auf den Bildern Choreograf/innen zu sehen, die ihre Soli selbst vortragen: Susanne Linke, Gerhard Bohner, Reinhild Hoffmann, Lina do Carlo und Urs Dietrich. Ausnahmen sind das berühmte Martha Graham Solo (1930), interpretiert von der Tänzerin Camille Andriot, und Hans van Manens „Solo“, dargestellt von drei Tänzern, die das Solo unter sich aufteilen. „Auch wenn durch die Coronakrise immer mehr Choreograf/ innen (nolens volens) gedrängt werden, für Mini-Besetzun- gen zu choreografieren, bleibt das getanzte Solo eine Königsdisziplin im Tanz. Selbst für die Besten eine große Herausforderung“, so Gert Weigelt.

The photo exhibition of former dancer and dance-photo- Martha Graham / photo: Gert Weigelt grapher Gert Weigelt, who in 2019 was the first photogra- pher to receive the German dance award, revolves around solo dance. Baring two exceptions we see choreographers who present their own solos, such as Susanne Linke, Gerhard Bohner, Reinhild Hoffmann, Lina do Carlo und Urs Dietrich. An exception is the famous Martha Graham solo (1930), interpreted by the dancer Camille Andriot; another is Hans van Manens „Solo”, performed by three dancers dividing the solo between them. „Even if more and more choreographers are being urged (willy-nilly) to choreograph for mini-casts due to the corona crisis, the danced solo remains a supreme discipline in dance. A great challenge even for the best“, says Gert Weigelt.
