This year’s Biennale Danza Venezia Silver Lion award went to Zurich-based choreographer Trajal Harrell. A house director at the Schauspielhaus Zurich, and the founding director of the Schauspielhaus Zurich Dance Ensemble, he brought the Ensemble to FringeArts Festival for the Philadelphia premiere of his 2022 “The Köln Concert” last month.
Harrell’s prodigious body of work reaches back two decades. I first encountered it with his “Antigone Sr./Twenty Looks or Paris is Burning at the Judson Church (L)” and again with “Caen Amour,” which premiered at Festival Avignon 2016. They headlined the Philadelphia Fringe Festivals in 2014 and 2018, as was “The Köln Concert” this year.
