In 2008, Anne Teresa De Keersmaeker and Alain Franco created Zeitung. In Zeitung, they focused on choreographic and musical material that dealt with composition, improvisation, and the experience of time, generating a performance to the music of Bach, Webern, and Schoenberg (underlining the importance of the nineteenth century by skipping over it). Ten years later, the two will collaborate again to rewrite the piece as Zeitigung. Zeitigung will rethink and reset its own sources. As part of this process, De Keersmaeker and Franco have invited Louis Nam Le Van Ho (a P.A.R.T.S. graduate dancer and choreographer) to create a second part to the piece, making it a diptych. His contribution adds a new dimension to their ongoing research to different approaches into the creative process.
