MENSCH UND KUNSTFIGUR IM KUGELTHEATER

Can the avant-garde utopias of the Bauhaus artists—to create an immersive “total theater”—become reality today?

The Düsseldorf-based THEATER DER KLÄNGE utilizes the audio-visual possibilities available in the planetarium to
explore this question. Four real-life dancers interact with the fulldome, where their live movements control
the 360° projections, making the theater concepts of Bauhaus modernism sensory and spectacularly tangible—100 years later.

Created in collaboration with the Planetarium Bochum.
