When dance and painting come together, a completely new language is created – Issam Zemmouri
That is exactly what the Historia Collection exhibition stands for. Maker Issam Zemmouri shows here a series of paintings inspired by scenes from the dance performance HISTORIA of the same name, where each painting represents a unique moment and the characteristic drama of the performance. Don't miss this opportunity to enjoy an extraordinary artistic experience that brings together dance, movement and color in a unique exhibition! The exhibition can be viewed free of charge.
About the exhibition
The colorful paintings that shape this exhibition were created during the lockdown period following the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020-2021. Because this period limited the dancer's freedom of movement, he looked for alternative ways to express his creativity; with paint and canvas. The results are visible in a special exhibition in which Issam brings dance, movement and color together into a harmonious whole.
The Historia Collection offers a unique artistic experience and a special view of the maker's practice. Issam stands out for his ability to translate dance movements into colors and express them visually, giving visitors a unique opportunity to discover the story through colors and shapes. A valuable addition to the performance allows visitors to explore art in its different dimensions and allows the creator to fully express his creativity and movement.
