Laura Kalauz

Descripción del Artista

Laura Kalauz was born in Buenos Aires, Argentina (1975) where she studied dance and Sciences of Social Communication at the University of Buenos Aires. In 2003 she graduated as Dance Maker at the Hogeschool voor de Kunsten–Dansacademie Arnhem, Holland. Since then Laura Kalauz lives in Zürich, where she works as independent choreographer. Her work poses questions on the routines and patterns of contemporary life. Her interest lies in revisiting the taken-for-granted assumptions that rule social behaviour and that shape our model of communication. Laura Kalauz has collaborated with the artists Martin Schick, Krööt Juurak, Simone Aughterlony, Nicolas Galeazzi and Marina Belobrovaja. She has directed and performed several projects, among others: “Multiverse” (2007), “Excuse me please could you choreograph me” (2007-10), “Do what you see/ See what you do” (2009) and “Title” (2009) & CMMN SNS PRJCT. The last two in collaboration with Martin Schick. Currently she is working on two projects: “Fluchtpunkt/ Punto de fuga” a collaboration with prisioners of the penal Ezeiza (Buenos Aires, ARG) based on the intervention of public space; and WILD THING, the invention of a political-fictional territory. They will both premiere towards the end of 2012 in Switzerland and Germany.
