Luis Adelantado is pleased to present Novaciéries , a film that will be screened at Boiler Room as a result of the collaboration between the gallery and the 10 Sentidos Festival. This event, in a spirit of criticism and reflection on today’s society, is committed in each edition to making visible issues of concern to our community and to highlighting the power of art as a catalyst for social action.
(LA) HORDE ‘ s film, sets a staging that reinterprets Jumpstyle, a dance style born out of Mainstream Hardcore.
Through it, a mysterious look is constructed, which approaches the development of this movement, understood in a post-internet era, and which highlights fundamental aspects of a global nature.
With a running time of 16 minutes, this piece includes recordings filmed by the film crew and by the cast of dancers themselves. Similarly, the film contains home videos made by the performers themselves, shared on Youtube and other platforms.
The camera follows the dancers as they wander through an old industrial building. As they perform and repeat HardJump Hakken gestures to the rhythm of the machinery, a hardcore anthem, Hardcore to the bone, is played, reinterpreted by a lyrical voice.
In this way, we witness the evolution of the protagonists until they are reunited to offer a show without an audience, and we hesitate, at all times, between the idealised vision of their representation and the reality of their visibility.
Novacieries es una combinación de cine, performance y video doméstico que trasciende las películas de danza, presentando un retrato coreográfico y metafísico del mundo post industrial, reinterpretado a través de la danza post-internet.
