Martin Kilvady in Les SlovaKs Dance Collective's Journey Home <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

…comprised of the very charismatic Slovakian boys Milan Herich, Peter Ja\u0161ko, Anton Lachk\u00fd, Milan Tom\u00e1\u0161ik and Martin Kilv\u00e1dy with highly individuated and endearing personalities (friends since childhood who shared the stage at the Vychodna folk festival when they were five – but now working together in Belgium) provided another amazing night of contemporary dance in Rome tonight, performing Journey Home <\/em>whose “…structure comes from Slovak tradition in which a dance evening is like a puzzle of different dances from various regions of the country”<\/em> which consisted of wild improvisations, tender couplings, traditional Slovakia steps mutated into something else, occasional yelping and whistling, traditional group song in harmony accompanied by violin, rhythmic stomping and clapping, leaps, fast fancy footwork, lifts, spins, unlikely combinations of postures and positions, rapid uncanny animalistic gestures, all while wearing super super super outfits that were both casual, stylish, butch, awkward, and very deconstructed Comme Des Gar\u00e7ons from the early 2000’s with expanded seams of different fabrics giving the everyday denims, linens, flannels, and corduroys some room to move – which they definitely needed – though my favorite moment came when Martin (pictured here) dramatically took off his jean jacket to bust out in a dynamic improvised thrashing solo to some classic rock.
