Pina Jackson in Mercemoriam
Recorded at the CND 18 April 2011
Choreographic comedy
The work “Pina Jackson in Mercemoriam” brings together the ancient and the modern, the sacred and the profane, the serious and the playful. The coincidence of death brought together three great masters of dance, in a single month in 2009: the king of pop, Michael Jackson, the queen of the Tanztheater, Pina Bausch and the emperor of the “Dance Revolution”, Merce Cunningham.
Foofwa d’Imobilité evokes them through a parodist and contemporary approach of Dante’s “Divine Comedy” whilst reinventing the Dance of Death that emphasizes the vanity of social distinctions. As always, Foofwa d’Imobilité uses all means available to bring life to this shadowy world: he imitates, mimes, copies, compiles and reinvents the wrongs and the foibles of these beings just as much as their inspirational genius.
