Through a co-operation with BONNIERS KONSTHALL<\/strong> for the first time, Dansens Hus is stepping in with its productions in a pure art centre. During autumn and spring 23\/24, Dansens Hus will make a number of interventions in the art gallery's rooms.<\/p>\n - Contemporary dance and contemporary art have several points of contact and it feels great that Dansens Hus is moving in with us temporarily. We look forward to taking part in their processes and being able to offer our audience contemporary dance at the highest international level. <\/em>says Ellen Wettmark, Head of Operations at Bonniers Konsthall.<\/p>\n The caf\u00e9 will be open from 14 to 17 on Saturday and Sunday. They will serve light refreshments and small sandwiches.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" In her work Seeking Unicorns, Italian Chiara Bersani mixes dance and performance to give the unicorn a story, a choice and above all - love.<\/p>","protected":false},"featured_media":44597,"menu_order":0,"template":"","class_list":["post-44596","dh_event","type-dh_event","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","dh_eventcategory-extern-scen","dh_eventcategory-forestallningar"],"meta_box":{"components":[{"component_type":"embed","embed_group":{"embed_type":"gallery","embed_gallery":"162"}},{"embed_group":{"embed_type":"gallery"}},{"component_type":"embed","embed_group":{"embed_type":"video","embed_video":"c60fe1a4f4f66cfed1d165bee4bbfd79","timestamp":"0m03s","video_title":"Gentle Unicorns ","embed_caption":"Gente Unicorns"}}],"grid_description":"","mobile_featured_image":false,"show_group":[{"show_datetime":"2023-11-11 15:00","show_link":"https:\/\/www.ticketmaster.se\/event\/637525"},{"show_datetime":"2023-11-12 15:00","show_link":"https:\/\/www.ticketmaster.se\/event\/637531"}],"featured_image_position":"","event_address":"Bonniers Konsthall, Torsgatan 19","event_google_maps_url":"https:\/\/www.google.com\/maps\/place\/Bonniers+konsthall\/@59.3371695,18.0398726,17z\/data=!3m1!4b1!4m6!3m5!1s0x465f9d7b4f43ea93:0xf0112e9f35f0298d!8m2!3d59.3371695!4d18.0424529!16sg11b6rch4nj","background_topbanner":"#ffffff","color_topbanner":"light","overlay_topbanner":"medium","gradient_topbanner":"","reviews":[{"review_source":"The Guardian","review_quote":"It\u2019s like a phantom, a memory, a premonition; definitely some magic in the air.","review_url":"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/stage\/2022\/oct\/23\/chiara-bersani-seeking-unicorns-review-mythical-presence"}],"offstage_image":{"width":320,"height":443,"file":"2022\/11\/sarkissova-1-scaled.jpg","filesize":506459,"sizes":{"medium":{"file":"sarkissova-1-338x450.jpg","width":338,"height":450,"mime-type":"image\/jpeg","filesize":31698,"url":"https:\/\/dansenshus.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/sarkissova-1-338x450.jpg"},"large":{"file":"sarkissova-1-768x1024.jpg","width":768,"height":1024,"mime-type":"image\/jpeg","filesize":114193,"url":"https:\/\/dansenshus.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/sarkissova-1-768x1024.jpg"},"thumbnail":{"file":"sarkissova-1-320x443.jpg","width":320,"height":443,"mime-type":"image\/jpeg","filesize":29539,"url":"https:\/\/dansenshus.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/sarkissova-1-320x443.jpg"},"medium_large":{"file":"sarkissova-1-768x1024.jpg","width":768,"height":1024,"mime-type":"image\/jpeg","filesize":114193,"url":"https:\/\/dansenshus.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/sarkissova-1-768x1024.jpg"},"_50-50":{"file":"sarkissova-1-500x500.jpg","width":500,"height":500,"mime-type":"image\/jpeg","filesize":46162,"url":"https:\/\/dansenshus.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/sarkissova-1-500x500.jpg"},"1536x1536":{"file":"sarkissova-1-1152x1536.jpg","width":1152,"height":1536,"mime-type":"image\/jpeg","filesize":222776,"url":"https:\/\/dansenshus.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/sarkissova-1-1152x1536.jpg"},"2048x2048":{"file":"sarkissova-1-1536x2048.jpg","width":1536,"height":2048,"mime-type":"image\/jpeg","filesize":355620,"url":"https:\/\/dansenshus.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/sarkissova-1-1536x2048.jpg"},"post-thumbnail":{"file":"sarkissova-1-2560x3413.jpg","width":2560,"height":3413,"mime-type":"image\/jpeg","filesize":793733,"url":"https:\/\/dansenshus.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/sarkissova-1-2560x3413.jpg"}},"image_meta":{"aperture":"0","credit":"","camera":"","caption":"","created_timestamp":"0","copyright":"","focal_length":"0","iso":"0","shutter_speed":"0","title":"","orientation":"0","keywords":[]},"original_image":"sarkissova-1.jpg","ID":"42942","name":"sarkissova-1-scaled.jpg","path":"\/home\/9S7ZOrpINF99psLj\/dh-prod\/public_html\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/sarkissova-1-scaled.jpg","url":"https:\/\/dansenshus.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/sarkissova-1-320x443.jpg","full_url":"https:\/\/dansenshus.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/sarkissova-1-scaled.jpg","title":"sarkissova-1","caption":"","description":"","alt":"","srcset":false},"offstage_group":[{"offstage_heading":"Eftersnack 11 november","offstage_content":"Eftersnack med koreograf och dansare Chiara Bersani och Karina Sarkissova, frist\u00e5ende curator och dramaturg 11\/11 efter f\u00f6rest\u00e4llningen kl 15:45-16:15 p\u00e5 Bonniers konsthall.\r\n\r\nKarina Sarkissova \u00e4r koreograf och danskurator baserad i Stockholm.
