THE WORK

Counting to One Hundred

Creators: Jonathan Burrows and Matteo Fargion

Duration: 30 minutes

Counting To One Hundred (2011) is the most recent addition to a body of work, all duets, developed by Burrows and Fargion since 2002. The performances are conceived, created, performed and administrated by the artists, and all are still currently available for touring internationally: Both Sitting Duet (2002), The Quiet Dance (2005), Speaking Dance (2006), Cheap Lecture (2009), The Cow Piece (2009) and Counting To One Hundred (2011)

‘It’s been years since Jonathan Burrows and Matteo Fargion appeared in New York and won a 2004 Bessie (New York Dance and Performance Award) for their Both Sitting Duet. Ever since then, occasionally feeling gloomy during some performance or other, I’ve wished that a fed-up theater goblin would whisk away the show I’m watching and deposit Burrows and Fargion in its place.’ – Deborah Jowitt, DanceBeat, on Cheap Lecture and The Cow Piece, New York, 2011

A Choreographer’s Handbook by Jonathan Burrows is published by Routledge and available from amazon.com
