Hoogerman is a dance performance inspired by the work of digital artist Han Hoogerbrugge. A piece that seeks to embody the digital animation work by that artist adopting the language of theatre. If Hoogerbrugge supposes the digitalization of a man with his obsessions, anxieties and fears, Hoogerman tries to be the re-conversion of this virtual world into something organic, around the body.
Erre que erre is a collective of the artists and performers whose aim is to develop their work based on creation and experimentation with new forms and concepts of dance and movement. It serves as a platform for various interdisciplinary collaborations that result in new formats stage / exhibition and artistic projects. The group Erre que erre has always considered teamwork as the center of their own identity.
