Als ich mir vorzustellen anfing, was für ein
   Tanzstück ich für eine Kompanie machen
würde, die „die alte Institution der Tanzkompanie
  neu entdecken und -bewerten will“, kamen
  persönliche Erinnerungen an Tänze, die ich
 miterlebt hatte, wieder hoch. Jeder von ihnen
ist eng mit einem*einer Tänzer*in verbunden,
 den*die ich in der Dunkelheit der Tanzfläche
oder von meinem Platz im Theater aus gesehen
habe. Diese Erinnerungen, mehr als nur Bilder,
  haben sich meinem Körper eingeschrieben.
   Sie sind auch konstitutiv für meine Tänze.
   Sie sind meine Bibliothek. / Frédéric Gies

   As I started to imagine what could be the
dance piece I would make for a dance company
  that is “aiming to rediscover and revaluate
    the old institution of Dance Company”,
   personal memories of dances I witnessed
 came flooding back. Each of them is closely
tied to a dancer whom I saw in the darkness
   of the dance floor or from my seat at the
  theatre. These memories, more than mere
 images, reappear as an imprint in my body.
    They are also constitutive of my dances.
      They are my library. / Frédéric Gies
