Hip Hop, a generator of use.

Regularly, through the movements of the body, the bounce, producing a flow, mixes intuition with subjectivity. “Flow” and “bounce” are words frequently used in Hip Hop culture, sometimes the usage tries to link itself to the form, but what can generate these so vague words? Can they have definitions? Can they give other readings to the movement?

 

Milø Slayers

After completing a Master’s degree in “arts and choreography” at the age of 28, Milø Slayers finished the “urban space” art course at the ISAC (Institut Supérieur des Arts et des Choréographies) in Brussels within the Royal Academy of Fine Arts. In this course, the focus was on bodily practices in a wide field between choreography and visual arts: how to use the body as a plastic material and as a receptacle for reflection?

This combination of pure physicality and philosophical inspirations has always inspired Sleyers’ work. From Descartes to Deleuze to the philosophy of Football Manager or non-Euclidean video games, he likes to be inspired by deep structures and their simultaneous deconstruction in order to translate these ideas in a rather intense, intuitive and visceral way.

THE NEXT PERFORMANCE ART GENERATION

Since several years, visual arts schools in French-Speaking Belgium dedicate part of their curriculum to live art: a response to the new dynamics of these practices in the professional field. One can see new generations of artists appearing, taking over the Belgian and international scenes of performance art, with individual or collective works, multiplying collaborations… They don’t make performance art like their elders, they invent new forms, which need new showing spaces.
