Beschreibung

Minako Seki was born in Nagasaki, Japan. Since 1985 she danced in Tokyo with the Company 'DanceLoveMachine', with whom she came to Europe in 1986 on an invitation of the Berlin Arthouse Bethanien. She stayed in Berlin and in 1987 she became Co-founder and Director of “tatoeba - TÉÂTRE DANSE GROTESQUE”, the first Japanese-German Butoh-Ensemble. She further develops the style of this group, which amongst other characteristics focuses on the sleeping potentials in human beings, in 48 productions as a dancer, choreographer and director.

Since 1996 she has focused more on her own company where she has continuously been looking for the friction in crossing art disciplines. For example, she choreographed the opera 'Endlösung' by Peter Michael Hamel, and worked with the projections designer and light painter Gustav Gisiger. She is also involved in intensive teaching: since 1990 she has been teaching at the 'tanzfabrik Berlin”, 1992-1999 at 'teatret cantabile2 - School Of Stage Arts' in Denmark and 1999-2003 at National Academy Norway.
She and her ensemble had in April 2005 premiere with Borderless Split Brain in Berlin, which was sponsored by Hauptstadtkulturfonds and in March 2006 with “Memories To Undressed Persons” in New Nationalgallery in Berlin. In 2007 Minako Seki was guest professor at the Institute for Applied Theatre Studies in Giessen/ Germany. At the Beginning of this year (2008) the project “Kosmos in Movement” (K.I.M.) – a world wide school of moving arts – has been brought into being by Minako Seki and Elias Cohen (Physical Theatre).
Her newest productions are “Shoshin The Undercover Elephant” (2008), which was shown for the first time at Teatro San Gines, Santiago de Chile and 'Tenkai - The way to Heaven'
