This American icon of pop culture is still perceived as a symbol of femininity, liberated sexuality and one of the most recognizable and appreciated actresses in the world. The artists enter into a game with the figure of Monroe. In their artistic work they explore how the disabled body is perceived in society and they confront taboos about disability. performed by: Maja Kowalczyk, Aleksandra Skotarek screenplay: based on texts by Maja Kowalczyk and Aleksandra Skotarek inspired by Marilyn Monroe’s diary directors: Justyna Wielgus, Justyna Lipko-Konieczna costumes: Wisła Nicieja cinematography: Wojciech Kaniewski, Ania Hatłas editing, subtitles: Wojciech Kaniewski The performance “Body to Body with Marilyn” was commissioned by Saša Asentić within the project “DIS- is not included”.

It premiered in February 2021 at Sophiensæle in Berlin. “In the video performance “Body to Body with Marilyn”, Teatr 21 actresses Maja Kowalczyk and Aleksandra Skotarek play the role of Marilyn Monroe. This American icon of pop culture is still perceived as a symbol of femininity, liberated sexuality and one of the most recognizable and appreciated actresses in the world. Reading her diaries reveals the image of a very conscious artist, who explores acting techniques, a poetess and an intellectual, which seemingly does not fit the image of a sexpot. And is there room in this image for illness or disability? The gesture of using the figure of Marilyn Monroe by the actresses of Teatr 21 is a play on the ideas and expectations of the audience connected with the perception of femininity, acting and sexuality of people with disabilities. The artists enter into a game with the figure of Monroe. In their artistic work they explore how the disabled body is perceived in society. What are the boundaries between norm and non-normativity, human and non-human, masculinity and femininity? The actors use manifestos and theatrical means to confront taboos about disability. <h2>About Teatr 21</h2> Teatr 21 (Warsaw, Poland) is a theater company whose actors are mainly people with Down syndrome and autism.

Molissa Fenley (United States) on State of Darkness with Frank

Molissa Fenley (1954), Founded Molissa Fenley and Company, 1977. Performances throughout the United States, Canada, Mexico, South America, Europe, Australia, India, Indonesia, Japan, Korea, Singapore, Hong Kong and more. Commissions: from the American Dance Festival, the Brooklyn Academy of Music, the Dia Art Foundation, Jacob’s Pillow, The Joyce Theater, Lincoln Center, New National Theater of Tokyo, National Institute of Performing Arts, Seoul, The Kitchen, DTW/New York Live Arts, and others. I have choreographed and performed my work since 1977. My work has been choreographed for ensembles, (my own dance company as well as for others by commission) and as solo works created in collaboration with contemporary visual artists, composers, and poets. Many of the works, although not in my current repertoire, are still foremost in my mind and personal body memory. State of Darkness, choreographed in 1988, was the first solo choreographed to Igor Stravinsky’s Le Sacre du Printemps. The work was commissioned by and premiered at the American Dance Festival. I subsequently performed State of Darkness many times throughout the United States, Korea, and Australia until 1993. One of my most memorable performances was at the Brisbane Biennial in 1991 where I danced the solo work with the Brisbane Symphony Orchestra, one dancer with 114 musicians.
