The Archive

This choreographic work performed by Pulvermacher places her inside a perforated post-memory landscape. Exploring her German-Jewish family history, she constructs a performative journey to Frankfurt and Berlin, once her family’s home. Pulvermacher sifts through documents, old pictures, and personal artifacts, conjuring up fragmented narratives, voices, and characters that emerge briefly, only to fade back into oblivion.
Format: Choreographed piece
Cast Size: 1F plus 3 performers
