Tar and Feathers - Kostuumvideo - Jiří Kylián | Celebrating an evening with Jiří Kylián!

The NDT-1 programme Celebrating an evening with Jiří Kylián! pays homage to this inspired choreographer with three influential creations: Tar and Feathers (2006), Gods and Dogs (2008), and Bella Figura (1995). The three ballets were originally choreographed for Nederlands Dans Theater (NDT) by Jiří Kylián. Also, the costumes were especially designed at NDT by Joke Visser, who at the time was head of NDT’s costume atelier. For these pieces Joke created dance costumes made of bubble wrap, costumes consisting of more than a 1000 small stones on frills. The costumes appear simple but are aesthetically magnificent.

Normally, these costumes are only visible from a distance when they are on the stage. Now we are zooming in on the smallest detail and are bringing the costumes into focus. This way you can really see the craft of the master tailors.
