On Pina Bausch’s Legacy: an interview with Dominique Mercy
No full textPerhaps no other author has better characterized the work of Pina’s
dancers – and, therefore, the artist’s herself – than José Sasportes – a
remarkable Portuguese dance critic and historian. This brief observation of
Sasportes, made in a text entitled Acção para bailarinos [Action for dancers],
and regarding an event held in Lisbon in honor to Pina Bausch, allows to perceive in quite clearly the meaning of the experience and legacy of a remarkable artist, that are summarized in the figure of one of her greatest collaborators, Dominique Mercy.
Certainly, there is no need to introduce Dominique. It is worthy,
though, to recover some moments that preceded his fortuitous encounter with Pina in the early 1970’s in Saratoga, United States. Born in 1950 in the city of Mauzac, France, Dominique’s first professional steps in the dance world from the mid-1960’s on were in the Bordeaux Grand Théâtre,
later followed by the Amiens Ballet du Art Contemporain. In 1973, two
years after his first encounter with Pina in the Summer Festival of Saratoga,
in 1971, Dominique goes to Germany, to Wuppertal, to be part of the
recently founded Tanztheater.
His close relationship with Pina allowed, in fact, that her legacy could
be kept alive following her sudden death in 2009. Dominique took over the
artistic direction of the Company with Robert Sturm for some of the
following years, having later transferred the position to his co-worker and
dancer Lutz Forster. It was beside Pina and so many others from the
Wuppertal ensemble that Dominique ended up writing one of the major
pages in the annals of dance history in the 20th century.
The experience of – or rather, with – Pina that each one of us
apparently has with her when meeting her work for the first time, allowing
to understand in a certain extent the fascination that she exerts until
nowadays on the audience, passes as well and indispensably through those
who worked with her and by her means. My first time with Pina was, for
sure, beside Dominique Mercy, or rather, in front of him. Dominique was
half-naked, wearing only a tutu and carrying a watering can. It was 2006,
for the presentation of Fur die kinder von gestern, heunte und morgen, in
Porto Alegre. Pina was also there.
The unusual encounter – even though separated by the proscenium
arch – would happen again years later in Paris. However, this time, in
2011, without Pina and with no line dividing us. I was introduced to
Dominique following one of the presentations of Como el musguito em la
piedra..., by the also Tanztheater Wuppertal dancer Daphnis Kokkinos. On
that occasion, Dominique had an extremely light and welcoming attitude.
Over the years, I noticed that it was not a protocol way of introduction, but

Bausch’s Legacy: an interview with Dominique Mercy
the very donation of part of what he was, how he was, not in a way, but in
his way, with or without tutu. In January 2018, when recollecting that
encounter with Dominique in his house in Barmen, Wuppertal, he did not
remember it. And he certainly could not, as I, absorbed in my amazement,
had articulated little – or nothing – at that moment. However, even in my
involuntary contemplation, something had been given to me, a long-lasting
presence.
It was according to Dominique’s generous, honest and delicate way
that this interview actually happened. I thank him for the attention and for
the coffee. I also thank my dear friend Eddie Martinez, who made this and
so many other happy encounters possible to me

What Transition to Teach? Interview with Dominique Bourg
No full textInternational audienceDominique Bourg is a philosopher and honorary professor at the University of Lausanne (UNIL). He is the editor of the online journal lapenséeécologique.com and the author of several books about ecology, democracy and the impact of the market. In this interview he first talks about the initiatives, in teaching but also in university management, he is involved in, mainly in Lausanne. With regards to teaching, he shares his thoughts on how to introduce courses and he argues for a multidisciplinary and transdisciplinary approach of teaching ecological issues, combining the perspective of social sciences with sound scientific knowledge and eco-psychological support. The interview then adopts a broader angle by mentioning obstacles to the « transition », the need to change institutions at different scales, with taking into account long term issues in public decision-making and defining a common baseline for democracy. Finally Dominique Bourg explains which levers he considers most important on the local, national and international scale
