GALLIM School of Movement presents the GALLIM Process Immersion with Tanztheater Wuppertal Artist Eddie Martinez:

 

Process Immersion is a deep dive into the creative process. Each immersion offers a new lens into how we might experience and participate as artists, collaborators, and generative beings in the creative process.

 

The GALLIM Process Immersion with Tanztheater Wuppertal Artist Eddie Martinez:

 

A unique opportunity to immerse yourself in two weeks of process research with dance artist, educator, choreographer, and Pina Bausch collaborator Eddie Martinez! Drawn upon the process in which Pina Bausch created work, questions and tasks will be given daily and participants are invited to EXPLORE and CREATE, while pushing their own limits as a mover, performer, and creator. The process immersion will include learning direct feedback on individual research, and Q&A with Eddie Martinez on his process and experience working with Pina Bausch in Tanztheater Wuppertal for the past 25 years.
