Love Story, Palestine

Synopsis:
Conceptual artist/Choreographer/artistic Director of the School of Hard Knocks Yoshiko Chuma continues a lifetime obsession with danger in her new work, Love Story, Palestine. Intentionally confusing documentation with history, Chuma tasks el-Funoun members Sari Husseini and anas abu Oun and NYC-based talents Miriam Parker, Tatyana Tenenbaum, and Saori Tsukada- - three performers who have never been to Palestine - with re-creating segments from her own documented works and experiences in Ramallah, Palestine. Chuma assembles a mosaic of images and interviews which pertain to pain and longing, as if framing theater with barbed wire. Traditional dance is juxtaposed with contemporary movement, video projection and spoken text in a borderless environment constantly reshaped by sculptural objects. Yoshiko Chuma herself performs on the backdrop of Robert Flynts photography.
