Radialsystem V

Author: Margarita Zieda0 COMMENTS

Radialsystem V

Systems which develop from one point, like a system of rays emanating from a single centre, are referred to as radial. In the cultural space of Berlin, the term 'radial system' is well known since 2006 when during the last summery days of early autumn all roads lead to 33 Holzmarktsrasse, to the newly opened Radialsystem V - New Spaces for Arts, the former building of a riverside pump station, converted and renovated by the architect Gerhard Spangenberg. The very architecture of the building, combining a modern experience of concrete, glass and light with the warm power of the 1881 industrial brick structure and the live presence of the nearby River Spree, encapsulates the underlying idea of the Radial Systems: a dialogue of interplay between past and present, tradition and innovation, merging architecture, dance and music into a single piece.
Radialsystem V is home to the German choreographer Sasha Waltz, one of the most unique and significant - also most internationally sought-after - dance artists in the contemporary world. This is where she and her dancers create their unique dance performances which evolve from live music and unfold in a dialogue with it. Alongside the company of Sasha Waltz and her guests, excellent choreographers from worldwide, the building also houses the Berlin Academy of Early Music and countless musicians, composers and singers whose passion in music, both ancient and modern.
