A man waits on a railway platform. Trains pass but never stop. The audience sits in front of a mirror and sees themselves and the dancer on a stage behind them. A woman appears on the platform next to him, they seem to embrace each other. Sometimes she disappears suddenly, reappearing elsewhere on the platform. When the last train rushes past both dancers have vanished. Based on Samuel Beckett’s Text for Nothing #7, Double Track is a dance performance about waiting. Listening and seeing are separated and a unique perspective on the performance environment is created using video projections and mirroring techniques. Originally created in 1986, Double Track is set to a commissioned score by Dutch compser Louis Andriessen. The 2009 version was recreated by Blankert for the occasion of Andriessen’s receipt of the Johan Wagenaar Prize. Crash Ensemble perform the 12 minute Double Track score immediately before the dance performance.

A newly commissioned solo exhibition that explores the complex and historical world of spectatorship. Adopting the early special effects technique of matte painting, Sander uses and quotes the visual intricacies associated with illusion, while critically examining the personal motivation of consumers who participate in spectator industries. Tourism, audiences, the traveller and the curious are all characters who take time out of everyday life and pay to see things. The gallery will be transformed into a single, circular screen, providing a constantly changing and looping landscape. Sander contrasts the simplicity of matte painting with the complexity of the current economic unknowns that form the background to many of our lives.
