A site specific performance in Homage to my father Dani Karavan on and with his ‘Culture Square’ at the centre of Tel-Aviv to comemorate one year since his ‘departure’ from this physical world, in collaboration with dancers from the ‘maslool’
professional Dance Program- Bikurey ha’Itim

As a child, my father, the late and great Human and Artist Dani Karavan, the creator of many public art works around the world, would ask me to go and play on his public art sculptures so that people would understand that they could and should interact with his work in order to get the experience he created for them. During the years his works of Art have become my abstract playgrounds and later in life, the inspiring sets where I had the honor to create site-specific performances around the world. Including Japan, Spain, Germany, Italy and France… and now for the first time in Tel-Aviv, part of a bigger program where people can visit his multiple art works around the city.

The performance is created with and performed by Shira Arbel, Maya Asraf, Nov Azoulay, Yuval Bar Lev, Maya Barda, Shahar Ben Meir, Mor Elkayam, Mika Goren, Layal Mazzawi, Guy Olszanski, Inbar Perry, Larissa Pfister, Tal Pochkov, Leann Reizer, Noam Zadok and Kalia Dollar Landsman

A big thanks to Sharon Miler from Tel Aviv town hall, Aviva Levinson from House Festival, Ofir Dagan, Noa Fidler, Clil Cohen and Omri Albo from the ‘Maslool’ at Bikurey ha’itim.

26-28th- Houses Festival-

6-15- A Flor das Aguas- espetaculo do teatro fonte nova em Setubal

O espectáculo questiona como a cidade se integra na nossa cartografia corporal. Quais são as memórias de lugar, que histórias tece cada espaço e cada vivência? Onde estão e como se estabelecem centros, limites, periferias e fronteiras? Como circulamos e vivemos a cidade? De que forma olhamos e cuidamos os espaços naturais, como são planeados em espaço urbano?

Que amor existe a uma cidade, a um espaço natural, de que forma é que este amor resiste e renasce em interdependência e comunidade?

Coordenação de projecto: Patrícia Pereira Paixão | Criação e Interpretação: Clara Passarinho, Patrícia Pereira Paixão, Rafaela Bidarra, Sara Túbio Costa, João Mota, Graziela Dias (voz-off) | Interpretação Musical e Ambiente Sonoro: João Mota  | Investigação e Dramaturgia: Patrícia Paixão e Vanessa Amorim | Apoio à Fisicalidade: Yael Karavan | Sonoplastia: Emídio Buchinho | Figurinista: Zé Nova | Desenho de luz: José Maria Dias | Imagem, Design de Comunicação, Vídeo e Apoio à Produção: Tomás Anjos Barão | Produção e Comunicação: Graziela Dias

XI Simpósio Reflexões Cênicas Contemporâneas do LUME TEATRO
de 15 a 18 de Fevereiro de 2022 Evento on-line. 

O conceito de ecoperformance foi cunhado pela coreógrafa brasileira Maura Baiocchi como parte da inauguração de um novo ciclo de trabalhos da Taanteatro Companhia. Segundo palavras da Taanteatro a Ecoperformance entende o ambiente e o corpo como dimensões inseparáveis da criação performativa. Em uma ecoperformance, o ambiente constitui um jogo vivo e interativo de presenças e forças onde o artista não é o agente central, mas um dos componentes da performance. A mesa debaterá esse conceito e suas práticas além de suas ações de impacto político, tão necessário em nosso tempo.

Convidades: Maura Baiocchi (Taanteatro/SP); Anna Dantes (Cíclo Selvagem/RJ) e Yael Karavan (Karavan Ensemble, PT/UK/IS)

Mediação: Naomi Silman (LUME)

More info HERE

For many years my dear late father, Dani Karavan, and I were working in Japan at the same time. Him, with his amazing site-specific installations and myself with my Butoh research. We would meet there and share the same passions for Japanese aesthetics, nature, madness, and FOOD! In 2003 I had the unexpected opportunity to be invited to create a site-specific performance on one of his greatest sculpture sites entitled ‘Way to the Hidden Garden’ in Sapporo Art Park with a great group of dancers and musicians, Link to video HERE. I was later invited again and again to create work on additional pieces he created, and now, for the first time ever 3 of my performances on his sculpture sites in Japan will be presented in his exhibition- The Japan of Dani Karavan which will be inaugurated this coming Saturday 13th of November. In addition, I was also invited to perform as part of the opening and once more performing + talk with the audience a week later on Thursday the 18th at 6.30pm. Funny life, my father wanted me so much to work more here in Israel, and only now that he has passed the invitations keep on coming in….

Life…
and its
cycles…

How Fair and Square is our Human Rights Bingo? Join the ridiculously serious callers Yael Karavan and Silvia Mercuriali in a surreal Bingo night, from the comfort of your sofa. Performed in a multitude of languages, mixing stunning visual feats and movement, Bingo! is an interactive experience exposing the flaws within the rules of the game.

“Conceptually ingenious, this interactive show is part competition, part comedy and part learning experience in multiple senses… The transition to an online show is cleanly achieved, building a sense of community among the participants who are clearly instructed how to play…” The Reviews Hub – read more here

“Bingo! is a wild re-imagining of the familiar game. Karavan and Mercuriali are extremely likeable, and juggle the unpredictability of an interactive audience with impressive spontaneity… It’s a nudge to let ourselves off the hook, but remember our rights…” The Upcoming Link – more info here

Empathic Action!

An international Call Out for our Environment
in collaboration with Vincent Ordonenz

Photo Rita Vilhena & Yael Karavan

Dear friends of the world, in the face of the current pandemic we feel the need to break the silence into action for our planet. We believe that waiting for the political bodies and authorities to take action of these urgent matters is a waist of time and that we need to unite in the face of this crises in order to imagine a better future and protect our environment= ourselves. We therefore feel the need to act together now before it is too late. We believe that we are part of this wondrous nature and that we must start to have more empathy towards it hence towards ourselves. How ironic that we pollute the air of our planet and here comes Covid19 who suffocates us back, reminding us that we are part of the whole, the cause and the effect. As we are now experiencing closure of borders and social distancing we are nevertheless also experiencing, more than ever, how connected we are beyond countries and frontiers. We invite you to join our Empathic Action towards our one and only Home- Planet earth and to add to our Action with you Heart and Art.

We invite you to take part in our E-Action (empathetic action) for the planet by submitting an artwork in response to this theme. This collection of international artworks aims to include as many artists as we can worldwide compiled into an online book/gallery for dissemination across numerous platforms, working through partners, community groups, schools, museums, libraries and shared networks. Viewers will be given the option, but not obligation, to make donations and any funds raised will be given to charities to counter climate change. The works we aim to collect are of an audio-visual nature; we invite works from artists in any discipline across visual, performance, music, poetry and/or tech arts. The collection will be edited to produce a simple but immersive virtual experience taking the viewers’ on an audio-visual journey to encourage empathetic action. We see this present moment as a great opportunity to enforce and profess change, to collaborate as a world community and help protect our one and only home and the life on it.

All works of art (E-Actions) should be sent in JPG or PDF format not bigger than 10 mega
If it’s a video or a film, please send a link or a wetransfer.
To the following address: info@yaelkaravan.com
All right reserved to the artist
Please feel free to spread the word: it is time we break the silence
When sharing your work online please use #empathicactionow to spread faster and wider.
With best of wishes Yael Karavan and Vincent Ordonenz.

We are currently looking for a designer to help us with our website if you can recommend us anyone that would be greatly appreciated.

May 1st – 9th 2010 10 years to the Karavan Ensemble!!

Photo by Javi Otero with Linda Remahl and Bruno Humberto

10 years to the unforgettable experience of A ship of fools all over Brighton and in the legendary Coachwerks. We were mad, we were poetic, we had no shame we brought the inner to the outer and the wild to the streets of Brighton. I will never forget these magical days… strange to imagine that 10 years later the streets of Brighton are silent during the month of May… foolish misses and love to you all! xx
‘Let your heart be your compass!’ Xelis De Toro.

The Karavan Ensemble’s debut piece was based on the allegory of a Ship of Fools, aboard which society’s ‘misfits’ are gathered. Through dance, physical theatre, and site specific explorations a band of colourfuly edgy characters came to be. With ample audience participation, the Karavan Ensemble dared its public to open a door within, and encounter the fools that lay inside us all. Originally created and performed in Coachwerks, as part of Brighton fringe festival in May 2010.

Directed and performed by Yael Karavan with Linda Remahl, Bruno Humberto, Ana Fernandez Martinez, Sofia Fernandez Martinez, Rachel Champion, Pepa Ubera, Howard Sivills, Tamar Daly and Marion Deprez. Live music and sound composition by Tristan Shorr. Designer Sara Popowa.

En tant qu’adultes, nous pouvons enfreindre ces règles et découvrir l’objet au-delà de sa fonctionnalité, écouter le monde et réaliser que tout est vivant.

And merge into completely new shapes of expression.
IT WILL NEVER BE THE SAME.

Butoh Workshop at Brighton Natural Health Centre

Butoh Brighton is back at the Brighton Natural Health Centre with our seasonal Butoh Sunday workshop, in March I will be sharing more than 20 years of experience having worked with the founding members of Butoh Dance in Japan and Europe. The main elements we will be explored are metamorphoses, dance through imagery, presence, awareness and the tension between opposites. The aim is to free the body from its mundane preconceived set of gestures and movements and thus allowing us to access a deeper and more authentic essence of movement and archetypal expression. Questioning why is Butoh Dance still relevant today.

“My dance is far removed from conventions and techniques, it is the unveiling of the inner life.” Tatsumi Hijikata

8th &9th – Workshop – The Secret Life of Objects at Evolution Arts Brighton. More info and booking HERE

Open to all who would perform, this workshop offers an immersion beneath the surface of the material world. Discover objects beyond their functionality, listen and realize that everything is alive. Suddenly, life becomes much more mysterious, playful and interesting… These sessions use techniques of physical and visual theatre, Butoh, dance and mime to explore how to creatively relate to material, objects and space, how to listen to them, explore them as partners, and instigators of characters and physical states, how to transform them and allow them to transform us.

“Constantemente renascemos. E não será suficiente simplesmente sair do útero materno. Precisamos de muitos nascimentos. Renascer sempre e em todos os lugares. Constantemente.” – Tatsumi Hijikata

Yael Karavan tem cerca de 20 anos de experiência em Butoh, durante os quais teve a oportunidade de trabalhar com os fundadores do Butoh no Japão: Kazuo Ohno e Motofuji San – esposa de Tatsumi Hijikata, bem como com Tadashi Endo, Yumiko Yoshioka, Carlotta Ikeda, Sankai Juku, entre outros.

“Minha dança está longe das convenções e técnicas. Minha dança é o desvelar de uma vida interna” – Tatsumi Hijikata

Mon 12th -19th – Pupik– the outreach community engagement part of the project is taking off-

30th 7.30 Doors open– ‘A Movement of Freedom!’ Cabaret Night.

We are delighted to invite you to the first in the In/Out Cabaret series at Rosehill, Brighton.
Friday 30th March doors open at 7.30pm

‘A movement of freedom!’ is a Cabaret Night of live performance, music and unexpected surprises, curated and performed by Yael Karavan with Ed Briggs, Xelis Detoro, Tim Harbridge and special guest Joe Watson.

Friday 30th March is the Passover night…where people traditionally come together to celebrate their freedom, it’s also Good Friday, Black Friday (originally connected to Paganism rather than consumerism!), it’s a year after the triggering of article 50…and a year before the UK leaves the EU in a political move that literally threatens our freedom of movement!…so if these are not good reasons to emerge from this long cold winter into a long awaited spring and celebrate our freedoms together, then what are?!
