[8:tension] Young Choreographers’ Series Eric Arnal-Burtschy: Why We Fight
Eric Arnal-Burtschy: Why We Fight © Sebastien de Buyl
And now for something completely different. This dancer and visual artist is a reserve officer in the First Division Scorpion of the French Army and holds a master degree in European studies. An unusual biographical constellation, which makes him particularly competent with regard to the question he examines in the presence of his audience: why do we fight and – what do we fight for? Eric Arnal-Burtschy gained relevant experience in operations in, for example, the Sahel region. In his stirring, partly autobiographical monologue, the choreographer intricately combines various stories and asks himself and us what may lead to which kind of personal commitment.
