Live Art Installations is a Copenhagen based art project created within a realm of artistic collaboration between choreographers, dancers, composers, musicians, installation artists, engineers and designers from around the world.
Since 2001 a core group of Danish and international artists worked together out of Copenhagen, San Francisco and Berlin, exploring and challenging new artistic creations and experiments. Our productions were often large scale events with hundreds of artists involved.
Choreographer and installation artist Pipaluk developed the concept ‘live art installations’, also known as ‘Half Machine’, and her productions introduced a new concept in art and dance, where strong physical performers interact with installation artists, musicians, programmers, engineers and scientists in an open environment. The objective is true research and the audience an integrated part of the experience. The artists are offered a theme and invited to join an installation sphere or a performance interaction, a multidimensional co existence where one affects the other, and both audience and artists contribute to a process of creation and discovery.
Recent productions are large scale site specific events Crane Dance, Submarine Ballet, Elsinore Harbor, Koege Harbor, and installations areas and events HALF MACHINE.
Events for your city space
A recurring theme is the human body suspended between the elements of nature and raw urban components. Live Art Installations challenges and re-invents a specific environment by means of daring choreography, live music, water, light and fire installations. Our work includes dialogue with local infrastructures and audiences, creating intense and completely unique live experiences.
Our company consists of inspired and highly skilled dancers, aerial dancers, sound artists, musicians and installation artists. We dance on submarines, in a 50 m tall crane, on walls and buildings, in harbors and lakes, transforming city spaces. Our productions may involve the local fire brigade or a ferryboat, we build fire towers, sound landscapes, air ships, a 10 ton aquarium, and, why not, a real submarine.
An example is the 09 production ‘Submarine Ballet’, a large scale floating event through Copenhagen’s inner city harbor. The choreography was set for submarines, barges and towboats, massive fire installations and 70 courageous dancers, classical musicians and sailors. In 09 we also created spectacular harbor events for Danish cities Elsinore and Køge, and a breathtaking dance for a giant blue crane, aerial dancers and windmill wings in the city of Nakskov.
The artists of Live Art Installations are open to ideas for indoor and outdoor spaces, in return we’ll propose a special and unique work for your location. Our productions may include research programs and workshops with local partners.
