Je me souviens

Raimund Hoghe’s work Je me souviens  is one that he writes in every place he performs it. He turns the empty space into an ocean. Before he arrives on  its bare floor, each stage he performs on has already experienced so many performances and encounters, has been drenched in so much sweat. The walls and lights at the CN D remember. These wall shave seen so many performances
of new works and existing works, so  many moments of fear and joy, so many bodies and breaths. 

Raimund Hoghe  takes us on a journey that is bound up with his memory, with recollections of these places, of music and its silence, of endeavour and invention. He remembers and recreates for us an outline or a consecration, compassion or amazement. It is certain that the Centre national de la danse, a crucible for the new and the old in dance, will serve as inspiration for Raimund Hoghe. This piece, which evokes all performances without ever being an anthology, will thrill both his admirers and those who are discovering this artist for the first time. 

Caroline Gonce 

Je me souviens is a minimalistic event tailor-made especially by Raimund Hoghe for the space it takes place in, and tightly interconnected with the atmosphere that prevails there. It gives the audience an insight into Hoghe’s work, his artistic working process, and his pieces, which emerge here in fragments. From these fragments, a new work in its own right emerges, not a ‘best of’ presentation but moments of remembering. 

Katja Schneider 

“Without a drop of sentimentality… Hoghe’s “Skyroom Project” was a string of beautiful, bittersweet moments, but there was no mistaking its message. You have no choice: live life to the fullest and savor the small stuff.”
(Gia Kourias, The New York Times)
