One of the most innovative collectives on the international scene performs a site-specific work for FOG 2024, where dance becomes a means of insurrection. With an energetic explosion of bodies, architecture, and live electronic music, (LA)HORDE stages the intimate rebellion of youth and the increasingly political and personal role of new media for the younger generations. In this performance, the dancers unleash their wild and contagious energy to the rhythm of different styles, such as tekstyle, shuffle, hakken, and jumpstyle, giving life to a militant dance, an opposition movement.
Since 2013, (LA)HORDE brings together Marine Brutti, Jonathan Debrouwer and Arthur Harel. This collective of choreographers and visual artists, who took on the direction of the Ballet national de Marseille in 2019 and have worked with Sam Smith and Madonna to name a few, gave rise to several multidisciplinary and cross-community creations: through films and performances (Novaciéries, 2015; The Master's Tools, 2017; Cultes, 2019; Ghosts, 2021), and choreographic pieces (Night Owl, 2016; To Da Bone, 2017; Marry Me in Bassiani, 2019; Room With A View, 2020; Age of Content, 2023), the group interrogates the political component of dance and maps diverse choreographic forms of popular uprising, transitioning from raves to traditional dances.
