Meeting-Trilogy, Part III: People and Memory Spaces




About ECHO – from yesterday and tomorrow
Space does not exist in isolation, it rather reveals itself with every step which is taken into it.
The Swedish Choreographer Anna Holter, the “greatest hope of the Munich dance scene” (Süddeutsche Zeitung) presents her latest production Echo in i camp / neues theater münchen in October 2006.
Echo is part of a trilogy in which Holter and her dancers experiment with specific social ideas. Following Meeting with Oneself (2004, Meeting-Trilogy Part I) and Involved (2005, Meeting-Trilogy Part II) Holter takes spatial perception and memory as her theme for Part III.
What affect do particular places have on different people? What is unlocked in them? What links individuals to particular rooms and spaces and how can these subjective experiences and dreams be expressed in an intersubjective language of dance or movement? Associations with places, associations with scenes, associations with oneself, associations with associations, associations with what else. Dance.
Different people, each with individual ways of life, stories, dreams and memories - all influenced by their subjective spatial perception – collectively create a space – who is an actor, who audience? This collective space is a real space, as real as it is visible, audible, touchable, and can be heard, felt, seen, thought about to each individual’s senses. A collective perception of space will be created by movement and dance – a concrete room which can be collectively experienced.
The distinctive and unforgettably fluid movement of Anna Holter’s choreography is of course immediately visually perceived by the audience. She and her dancers discover familiar locations anew: the all too familiar theatre stage, the so-called boards, which represent the so-called world, these appear as fluid locations in a way it would be impossible to draw on a map. The stage looks as if it has never been walked upon, the world as it has never been seen.
Suddenly, personal and individual memories intrude into this new world, history is made. Scars heal over old wounds, everything flows. What Anna Holter and her dancers can make out of such a situation with their bodies, with their dancing abilities can be seen nowhere else, can be read in no library in the universe, you have to see it for yourself.

Anna Holter | Choreographer
Anna Holter, the “greatest hope of the Munich dance scene” (Peter Boenisch in the Süddeutsche Zeitung on Zooming - A Solo for Three, 2001) was born in Stockholm, Sweden in 1976. As a child she took ballet and theatre classes and at the age of 11 began jazz dance. What started as a hobby quickly took over a large proportion of her free time: further lessons in classical ballet, contemporary dance and hip-hop followed. Only after finishing school did she decide to make her passion her career. The pursuit of that aim led her to Munich in 1995, where she studied at the Iwanson School of Contemporary Dance until 1997.
Since then she has worked as a dancer and choreographer in Germany, Sweden, Austria, Italy and Switzerland. In addition she was invited to the Ludwig Maximilian University in Munich as a guest lecturer. She teaches regularly at the Theaterraum drama school in Munich.
In April 2005 she organised the Swedish dance evening Ikväll svenskt in i-camp/neues theater münchen, to which she invited Charlotta Öfverholm and her comapny Jus de la Vie from Stockholm.
In summer 2005 she assisted the choreographer Amir Hosseinpour on the production Zoroastre (Jean-Philippe Rameau; Direction: Pierre Audi),at the Drottningholms Slotsteater in Stockholm. The success of this production led to invitations to the Amsterdam and to the Holland Festival in spring 2005. In summer the production was filmed for, among others, Swedish television.
In Autumn 2005 Anna Holter toured with the Bayerische Staatsoper

to Tokyo and Yokohama.


In spring 2006 she was invited to the Moderna Dansteatern in Stockholm with Meeting with Oneself and as the German representative to the dance festival Danse a Lille in France.


Anna Holter has worked as a dancer with the following choreographers (selection):

Nicole Caccivio, Keegan-Dolan, Mia Lawrence, Charlotta Överholm, Irina Pauls, Johanna Richter, Ramses Sigl, Itztoc Kovac, Milli Bitterli, Rosemary Butcher, Amir Hosseinpour.
