In ›llámame mariachi‹ the Spanish choreographer and visual artist La Ribot, who last appeared at PACT Zollverein in the duet ›Gustavia‹ with Mathilde Monnier during the Ruhrtriennale 2009, continues her exploration of video and modes of visual treatment of the body. The piece starts with a frenetic film, set to an original soundtrack by Atom™ and shot in one fast-paced, disorientating take from the body perspectives of three dancers in succession. In the second section of the performance, the same three then appear live on stage, moving by deliberate contrast in extreme slow-motion, comically and provocatively reading from books and reflecting on the nature of art and humanity.
