Es ist die Kunst, die uns zeigt,
wie man sich in der heutigen Diversität von Kulturen bewegen muss,
wie man sich neu zu erfinden hat, indem man mit veralteten Weltbildern bricht.
François Jullien

Theater Salpuri

is an international theater company consisting of actors, dancers, musicians and visual artists from different cultures with different artistic and cultural background.Theatre Salpuri was founded 1994 in Berlin by the korean actress Soogi Kang and the german director Dietmar Lenz with the dance theatre performance "PIRI the cry of the soul", music by ISANG YUN: "Piri for oboe solo".

The centre of our work is the trans-cultural dialogue :
t h e a t e r__i n__b e t w e e n.
The artistic aim is to create interferences between different art forms and cultures in higly differing ambiences which may result in a new form of theatre : a forth world theatre

Different acting methods from EastAsia, Africa and Europe meet within the rehearsel process with actors/dancers from different nations. Today no longer seperate cultures do exist. What we see today is that in all existing medias a cross over of cultural forms technics and identities, traditional and modern, do happen. As artists we have to produce art which is rooted in changing cultural contexts. Old definitions of traditional and modern no longer seem useful today. The process of changing time forces us to de-contextualise: we artists learn how to journey from one into an other context: from „tradition“ to „modern“ from future into past from one culture into another from motion into e-motion from painting into dancing/acting from images into music from body to spirit to body. We may discover a specific energy which arises by becoming conscious of that what is not identic in-between different art forms and cultures!
