*New podcast with André Lepecki. feat. exclusive music by Morten J. Olsen
<http://rwm.macba.cat/en/sonia/andre-lepecki-/capsula>*
In this podcast, André Lepecki talks about the chronopolitics of
disappearance, dance, Louis XIV, the acquisition of choreography,
testimonial power, object-oriented ontologies, choreopolicing, the writing
of movement, and selfies.

*André Lepecki* works and researches at the intersection of critical dance
studies, curatorial practice and performance theory. As an Associate
Professor at the Department of Performance Studies, New York University,
Lepecki addresses the waycontemporary dance production and visual arts
performance engage with the fundamental issues of neocapitalism.

As well as curator, dramaturg, author and editor, Lepecki is one of the
leading theoreticians of the subversive political potential of performance.
Exploring the works of practitiouners such as Vera Mantero, Metter
Edvardsen, Jérôme Bel, Tino Sehgal, Xavier le Roy, he argues that the
political ontology of choreography is predicated on its disappearance and
its inherent resistance to commodification.

In this context, conditions such as choreographic thought and persistence
become essential alternatives to power politics. Lepecki’s concept of
‘singularity’ makes it possible to enhance the function of dance and
performance in political and artistic debate.
