Artistes in research — Anna Lea Ourø & Amalia Kasakove
The documentation center regularly welcomes artists in search of resources to nourish their projects. In early spring, we were delighted to welcome dancers and choreographers Anna Lea Ourø (DK) and Amalia Kasakove (FIN/SWE), in dramaturgy residency at La Bellone. Their duo A Ourø / A Kasakove is based in Copenhagen, where they co-founded the Dance Cooperative, a platform and studio run by some fifteen artist-performers. They are preparing the final part of a trilogy of works questioning how dance can constitute a space for loss. Their current research focuses on the tradition of drama and its forms of expression through the history of various artistic practices such as dance, theater and musical comedy.
