intimacies/amores/01

intimacies/amores ist eine Performance-Reihe, die sich amourösen Wissenspraktiken widmet und an einer Erweiterung unseres mythischen Repertoires geteilter Genusschancen arbeitet. amores/01 adaptiert performative Skizzen, die für intimacies bei den Wiener Festwochen 2025 entstanden sind, und verwebt diese zu einer varietéhaften Konstellation. Liebesdichtungen wie u.a. Montesquieus Reanimationsversuche heidnischer Einsichten in Le Temple de Gnide (1725), Charles Fouriers kabbalistische Kombinatorik libidinöser Assoziationen in Le Nouveau Monde Amoureux (1816) oder Violette Le Ducs mystisch-anarchistische Ekstasen in Le Taxi (1971) werden in ihrem Potential erkundet, Begegnungen im Zeichen geteilter Intensitäten zu eröffnen.

Joscha Baltha is a Düsseldorf-based actor and filmmaker. Of rare unassuming elegance, he delights in the intricate conspiracies that shape cultural history and spends his time off-stage courting seasoned virtuosos of social mirages – for future projects and for their wardrobes. Think uomo universale who missed a couple of nights’ sleep. 

Fatima Dramé is a Munich-based actor, singer, model and business administrator. Ever since her song “Wake-Up (Ding-A-Dang-Dong)“ entered the charts in 1996, she has been ringing the bell of slumbering cupids, if it was from the screens of MTV, the stages of Castorf’s “Reise ans Ende der Nacht“ or, with ,Bruch’-, on the love island of Maratonga.

Martina de Dominicis is a Vienna-based choreographer, dancer and somatic researcher. A mesmerising performer, she unfolds autosensorial states via imaginative and linguistic metaphorisations on her path to deciphering the lingua adamica of perceptive pleasures. 

Nick Romeo Reimann and Olivia Axel Scheucher are an actor-director couple who appear on the stages, screens and red carpets of Vienna and beyond. If you happen to spot them together, you may think of Mickey & Mallory, Violet & Corky or whichever archetypal lovers haunt your romantic imaginary – and risk being reminded of the soul twin you never had.

Elena Wolff is a Vienna-based actor, filmmaker and comedian. Their artistic practice is versed in the aesthetics of discomfort and distinguished by a dynamic interplay of intuition, intellect, sharp political sensibility and self-deprecating wit.
