[@sabineb.5616]

@@shunyataberlin, who is the one in luck? 😉 Goecke or the journalist? I am from Hannover, where Goecke has just resigned before they could fire him. I have to say that my sympathies are with the dog-pooh covered journalist. I read her review - and from what I have seen so far from Goecke's work she was right on the money! Edit: People should not condemn Goecke as a human being just because of one very foolish action.

[@peterectasy2957]

@@sabineb.5616 yes, i share almost same opinion,. Goecke was working hardly precisely but in strange maners and weird ways. sometimes too much ""artistic expressions" destroys art

[@sabineb.5616]

@@peterectasy2957 , I agree, and what I have seen from Marco Goecke's work isn't my cup of tea! But there is something else: after I saw a short video of his dog and an interview where he didn't sport tinted glasses, I realized that I actually know him and his dog personally! I have a dog, too, and I often met him and his dog Gustav in our local park because he lives just around the corner. I knew that he traveled often, but I didn't know about his job. We talked often and exchanged many thoughts in a very nice and personal way. He always came across as very sensitive and caring and not at all as a vein and self-absorbed artist. And since his chef at the opera in Hannover said the same positive things about him, he might be genuinely a nice guy - at least most of the time. It's flabbergasting that he attacked the journalist in such a nasty way! There is of course no excuse - even if the review would have been unfair, which IMO it wasn't. The whole thing is very strange!

[@chelseapoet3664]

He says he's not a fan of understanding things, but maybe now he might want to try to understand why he sabotaged his career over a review

[@kishdanilo]

Fascinating - the relationship between understanding and images… It reminds me of Freud’s observation that in dreams we shift from conceptual thinking to thinking in images.❤

[@sabineb.5616]

Deemah, as a dog owner I asked myself the same question! Goecke might've planned to besmirch the journalist. But it's also possible that he picked up the dog pooh in order to dispose of it later, and then he didn't immediately find a public litter basket. I think the former scenario is true. I have never carried the pooh of my dog into a theater 😉

[@dancefan33]

My understanding is that Goecke's movement vocabulary needs to be executed and communicated with a sense of urgency and angst, as if one has discovered dog poop on their body and is desperately trying to remove it. Goecke's choreography might best be understood as a 21st-century reply to the early 20th-century Ausdruckstanz of Mary Wigman, and can be termed Auskackstanz or Ausscheißtanz. 😎💩

[@sabineb.5616]

@William K. , dancefan and I was making fun of the action and the subsequent journalistic feeding frenzy and not of Marco Goecke himself or the journalist! I have no idea why you insist to give our exchange a far more negative whiff than it actually has!

[@nicolewolff3213]

Sein Verhalten ist absolut indiskutabel, degradiert ihn in seiner Position und ist seines Standes nicht würdig. Ich frage mich auch wie er seine Ensemblemitglieder während der täglichen Arbeit im Ballettsaal behandelt. Die Ausschnitte der kritisierten Choreographie erscheinen mir nicht innovativ, eher wie ein Möchte-Gern-Intellektuelles Gezappel. Wer sowas auf de Bühne bringt muss mit konträren Kritiken umgehen können. Kann er das nicht, wie er eindrucksvoll bewiesen, zeigt er damit auch seine eigene Unsicherheit was seine Choreographie betrifft. Er ist keine Pina Bausch, und auch kein John Neumeier - der zugegeben auch in den letzten Jahren gerne mal auf das Zippel-Zappel- Vokabular zurückgreift. Undenkbar dass diese unantastbaren Genies der Choreographie sich auch nur annähernd jemals derart auf eine Kritik reagiert hätten.

[@fgtangens8528]

Der indiskutablen Meinungspresse darf man auch gerne mal mit indiskutablen Mitteln begegnen. Der Mann hat schon für die bedeutendsten Bühnen der Welt gearbeitet. Und nun willst ausgerechnet du feststellen, dass er nicht innovativ genug sein soll?

Diese Cancel- Culture Methode einer Kritikerin, die bereits durch Pasolini in "120 Tage von Sodom" durch ihren Auswurf an übelstem Sadhismus gegen die Jugend zum Motiv erkoren wurde, indem dargestellt wird, wie sie die Jugend zerfleischt und in die Kloake wirft und damit Künstler ins Berufsverbot treibt, um die Theater leer und die Opern nicht besucht zu machen, spricht Legenden im deutsch sprachigen Raum. Seine Großmutter Pina Bausch wird wohl eine Spur in seiner künstlerischen Arbeit hinterlassen haben und wenn die Kritikerin auf einem Niveau von Dschungelcamp agiert, niveaulos wie eine Engelke, muss sie nicht Künstler in Theater oder Opern stalken, um deren künstlerische Werke zu zerreißen und die Theaterhäuser und Opern leer zu machen. Nach 120 Jahren übelstem Sadhismus ausgeführt durch diese Frau, haben die Künstler Deutschlands herzlich gelacht, über diese spontane Aktion der warmherzigen Emotionen und der Menschlichkeit.

[@observant6953]

​@@fgtangens8528 Nur von diesem Video aus zu urteilen: Redet sehr arrogant daher, trägt drinnen eine Sonnenbrille und "Fakten sind langweilig", "ich wollte ein Stück ohne Story schreiben", "ich will gar nichts verstehen". Klingt ganz schön dämlich als "Konzept". Sehr interessant ist in dem NDR-Interview nach der Kotattacke, als er bei "0:20" den Satz mit "...noch nie gemacht hat" beendet. Man sieht kurz eine Mikroexpression, ein kleines Grinsen, das er versucht zu unterdrücken, als er an seine Tat denkt. Spricht Bände. Völlig egal, für welche Bühnen er schon gearbeitet hat, er ist ein *********.
