Sinopse

In 1997, Gust presented itself as “a work without a theme in advance, but with a predetermined title preceding it”. 26 years later, Gust9723 is a work with/about/based on that work without a theme in advance, but with a pre-given title, as well as gestures, set, atmosphere, scenes, sounds and temporality, all of which, however, do not necessarily predetermine the piece today, but rather show paths that may or may not be trodden. Today, working with the “work without a theme in advance” from 1997 is making this Gust originate not from (its) the past, but from the renewed desire to offer it a (different) future. — André Lepecki
