FlorianBach
...
lives in Berlin and is a sculptor. His work comes from a reflection on politics and is largely made up of social demonstrations: boundaries, physical and mental limits, identity, exclusion, marginality and insecurity.
He is also a light designer and had work on several productions as technical director or tour regissor. He has worked for several choreographer and theater directors, mainly in the ADC – Genève, (association for contemporary dance in Geneva) where he assured by interim the technical direction in 2006 and has been brought there to work with different choregraphers like Olga de Soto, Boris Charmartz, Peeping Tom, Noemi Lapzezon, JOJI INC, Nathalie Tacchella, to quote some of them.
He toured with the Cie7273 as technical director, or as a technician for Alix Eynaudi, Yann Marussich, Yvette Théraulaz, Alice Chauchat, Isabelle Shad, Judith De Paule or Simone Aughterlony.
He signed the lightening design for Hanna Sybille Müller’s dance solo “Unheimlichkeiten” and “Unstable” and “Dummy/another myself” for Colette Sadler. He also designed the light for the last Colette Sadler’s show “The Making of Doubt”, “Loose Promise” of Kate McIntosh, “Conversation Piece” of Petra Sabisch. He is now preparing lightening Design for the next Zoe Knight’s show and Eva Meyer Keller and Sybille Müller’s “Bauen nach Katastrophen” project with children. He will collaborate with Bruno Pocheron to create the light of Simone Aughterlony's show called "Deserve"
