Marc Bogaerts is a Belgian choreographer and artistic director living in Berlin.
He has worked internationally for over more than 50 dance, opera and circus companies. Bogaerts stipulates that our current generational dynamic is complex and routed in the mundane and monotonous rigors of our daily need to survive or surpass.
Therefore, he believes in the need to counterbalance routine by symmetrically presenting traditionally segregated styles such as opera, ballet, nouveau circus and stationary art. Following postmodernism, Marc Bogaerts builds a bridge between all forms of physical expression.
Making unconventional combinations (modern dancers with athletes, circus artists with ballroom dancers, ice skaters with snake women, breakdancers with classical dancers) and bringing in his productions sport, art, ecology/innovations together he creates unusual symbiosis.
