until 05.10. | #2541ARTatBerlin | Semjon Contemporary presents from 31st August 2019 the exhibition “Tanz mit dem Raum – Das Geometrische Ballett und andere (performative) Projekte” (> Dance with Space – Geometric Ballet and other (performative) Projects) with artworks by the artist Ursula Sax.
This exhibition is conceived as a supplement to the new performance of the Geometric Ballet and attempts to trace the development towards this piece, which is based on her diverse dance sculptures, and to relate it to her other sculptural works.
The advance ticket sale for the premiere in the Radialsystem on 6 September 2019 for the re-appropriation of Geometrisches Ballett (Hommage à Oskar Schlemmer) is sold out. Tickets may still be available at the box office. There are only a few tickets left for the 2nd performance on 7 September.
Tickets for the premiere of the Dresden Appia stage version on 20 September 2019 at the Festspielhaus Hellerau can be purchased here

Six of the gallery artists are represented there with their works. Colin Ardley (he has curated the exhibitions there for around 25 years), Dittmar Krüger, Susanne Knaack, Dirk Rathke, Ursula Sax, and Marc von der Hocht.
The construction site at Schröderstraße 1 leads to restrictions in the appearance of the gallery. The gallery apologizes for this. Due to the construction work the following solo exhibitions of Thomas Prochnow and Dirk Rathke as well as Experimental Setup have to be postponed indefinitely.
