Rodeo Sessions — Ponyhof Rodeo Lab (March Edition)

Unfinished works. Open questions. Shared space.

On March 30, Ponyhof hosts a special edition of Rodeo Sessions — Ponyhof Rodeo Lab, a monthly platform dedicated to performance, dance, and works in progress within Berlin’s independent scene.

Conceived as a space for experimentation and encounter, Rodeo Lab brings together artists working in short formats (15–30 minutes), creating a setting where unfinished works can be shared, discussed, and developed in direct dialogue with audiences and peers.

This March edition is framed by Memory, Truth, and Justice from the diaspora, in resonance with Argentina’s National Day of Remembrance. The program gathers three performances that approach memory not as a fixed narrative, but as a living, embodied, and contested field.

Program

Oblivion — Javier Blanco
Oblivion is an artistic research and creation project developed as an extended process exploring memory, disappearance, and persistence through a situated and embodied practice. The presentation offers a glimpse into an ongoing investigation shaped by time, movement, and transformation.

Archivo Rosa — Mariana Eva Perez
A biographical-documentary performance that activates a family archive linked to Rosa Tarlovsky de Roisinblit, former vice president of Abuelas de Plaza de Mayo. Through letters, photographs, and testimonies, the work explores intergenerational transmission and the entanglement of personal and collective memory. This showing marks the first public presentation of the project as a work in progress.

Transmigration — Portal Sur Artes Vivas
A fragment from the transnational project Transmigration — Wolves Don’t Go to War, developed by a collective of Latin American migrant artists. The piece reflects on violence, displacement, and healing through a poetic and performative language, where memory is inscribed in the body and activated through shared presence.

About Rodeo Lab

Rodeo Lab is part of Ponyhof, a temporary hub for performing arts, collective research, and community practice in Reinickendorf. Initiated by Karne Kunst and Puente Berlin, Ponyhof operates as a space to test ideas, share artistic processes, and foster connections across disciplines and communities.
