MEDIATHEK

The intelligence, the endurance, fruits of a long learning, can clearly be read on the body of Pichet Klunchun, a Thai dancer, expert in “Khon”, a traditional style danced with masks. In duo with Jérôme Bel, they propose Pichet Klunchun and myself, a dialogue on their respective choreographic practices. Seated on the floor, Jérôme Bel’s laptop between them, they take it in turn to ask each other questions, accompanied by short demonstrations. The generous simplicity of Pichet Klunchun, his capacity to dissect his technique, without reducing it but not without humour, are absolutely brilliant. This choreographic experience and explanation reveals, most innocently, the key to a thousand-year-old art.
