ArTISTS
Working in choreography and other performing arts to a critical acclaim for over ten years, the Pekinpah artists have been presenting their work at prestigious venues in Europe and around the globe. Our artists excel in questioning the obvious, deconstructing the established, dissecting the normative and challenging the conventional, yet also in merging the unmergeable, uniting the divided and mending the broken. Radical to the bone, they are immersed in creation with all they've got.
Educated at Trisha Brown’s, SNDO and X-GROUP P.A.R.T.S., Matej Kejžar (Ljubljana, SI/ Brussels, BE) has been working with Rosas (The Song; Cesena) and creating his own performances throughout the world, including the internationally acclaimed Verbalisation Trilogy and numerous choreographies developed for, and in collaboration with, the leading world dance talents from Sao Paulo to Singapore. Kejžar’s latest performance, Rave, was commissioned by, and premiered at, the 2015 Festival d’Avignon.
A choreographer, performer and author, Mala Kline (Ljubljana, SI/ Brussels, BE) constantly challenges the boundaries of performing arts both in practice and theory.
