BYSTRÖM KÄLLBLAD
- Touring with CITY HORSES, a gallop through cities
 

In our cities, on bronze horses, proud kings quietly stare above our heads. Their history and visual male dominance daily manifested, and passed on to the next generation. Where are the women and their stories? This was the starting point for CITY HORSES - a city choreography about power, existence and the female body in the public space, a gallop through cities, a living monument in constant motion, celebrating female courage and power of all ages.

Since the premiere 2017 in Stockholm (SE) with Dansens hus, CITY HORSES has toured all over Sweden, to Denmark and now continues to Malmö Sommarscen (SE) 7 July 2018, Göteborgs kulturkalas (SE) 17 Aug 2018, Lidingö City (SE) 6 Oct 2018, Reykjavik (IS) 14 Dec 2018.

BJÖRN  SÄFSTEN
- Performing at Tanz im August
 

Björn Säfsten's work LANDSCAPES OF I will be presented at Tanz im August-festival in Berlin 11-13 Aug 2018.

LANDSCAPES OF I saunters along the boundary between personal and fictional, genuine real and counterfeit. Björn Säfsten examines our wish to permanently control our exterior perception, and plays with the insecurity of an apparently fixed reality. With rhythm and musicality, exactness of detail and humour he weaves solos by three performers into one another, hiking through the landscape of our self-awareness – or lack of it.
LANDSCAPES OF I is created with the performers Sophie Augot, Ilyas Odman and Will Rawls and premiered in February 2018. A co-production between Säfsten Produktion and Riksteatern. For full credits and more information - please read here.
