Romanfabrik e.V.

The world is going mad and art is giving form to the madness. 100 years ago, artists came together in various European centers and worked through the industrial revolution and social conflicts. Classical forms of artistic understanding were no longer sufficient. They had to be shattered. The DADA movement carried the spirit of the irrational into the world.

With his Ursonate, Kurt Schwitters created a global manifesto for crossing borders into new artistic territory. The German trombonist Anke Lucks has written music for this sound poem that moves between free association and composed rigor. The recitation becomes an onomatopoeic rhythm machine to which the music adapts.

Recitation: Thomas Krüger. Composition: Anke Lucks. Potsa Lotsa with: Anke Lucks + Nikolas Neuser (trumpets), Silke Eberhard (alto saxophone), Patrick Braun (tenor saxophone) and Gerhard Schlössl (tuba).

In cooperation with the Jazz-Initiative Frankfurt.
