There is something about this that transcends time and emotion ... poetry, vision, dance, life, all wrapped up together in a breathless, selfless act of art.

I know little about modern dance other than I rarely like it. It seems high risk - playing out in the same space/ time stuff as us. The artistry, courage and trust has to occupy every second, every inch, every night, to work. A single flaw in one can splinter the illusion into pantomime and running around to music. But, when it works, like here, it comes closest of all artforms to revealing the essence of the human soul. Thank you, ValeBjork, for posting this overwhelming work.

This is so moving. It is impossible to not have an emotional response to it. It is very absorbing and mesmerizing...! Powerful performance from both Sylvie and Niklas. Amazing work.

Genius !!! SYLVIE GUILLEM + NIKLAS EK = perfection.

A fine line between insanity and genius indeed. Love it.

Very nicely put! I find Mats Ek is the Lars Van Trier of dance

sylvie danse merveilleusement le contemporain....duo magnifique.....

i like how everything is so artistic and thought out-- the lighting, the music, the camera work, and of course the dancing.

I loved it!! :) I do definitely think you have to understand dance to watch this..It's beautiful, poetic, and I enjoyed every second of watching it! :) But if I showed it to my brother for instance who plays baseball I could see him saying WTF...lol :)

Preciosa danza.❤

Thank you for posting.I only have a short excerpt from this dance which I recorded off of The South Bank Show in the '90's.They did a program about Sylvie Guillem.I wish it was available on dvd,as my copy is quite poor.

Age creeps upon a man... when he moves like this he retains and expresses so much of his life force.

hmm, kimda reminds me of life... chaotic but absolutely beautiful... very enjoyable to watch

I feel like im a more complete person after watching this

this abstract kept me attentive all time... so wonderful to my senses. Thank god i can see...

I think you can get it on DVD. It's on Sylvie Guillem's 'Evidentia'.

FANTASTIC ♥

un video realmente sorprendente.. muy creativo y realista en su mensaje...

Dance as a complete language; it's own voice, it's own consonants, it's own parables. Someone once said music can say what words can't, that is why it's almost inhuman. And dance can make you live those things which music says.

IM IN LOVE!

Well that was interesting; awesome work, the man looking like a younger Andy Warhol added to the mystery for me. He's quite flexible! I'd like to see more of his dance work.

i keep watching this. day after day. it speaks to me so amazingly. a young male dancer myself. this man inspires me greatly. i want to know more about him but find nothing. what else has Niklas Ek performed in

Love it. Delightful. 'didn't know where it was going. But it went beautifully.

an only word. P e r f e c t i o n.

I'm speechless Totally.

@AlwaysMusicAlly The question it not "what do i think' but 'how does this make me feel'. It's dance; If there were words, we'd use them.

Maravilla Maravilla!!!

Actually, pretty characteristic of Ek's work. Of course its ballet. It all doesn't have to look like Swan Lake or Manon.

What you want me to SIGN for 5 mins LOL o.k I will try LOL Hugs Líf

He reminds me of Merce Cunningham, except more polished

LOL at 1:25-1:26

Am I high?

Certianly, this is too abstract for my small, feeble, teenage mind to grasp.The dancing was definitely brilliant but the small tid bits wear the camera would go crazy an repeat a section of someone shaking or something, I was confused... Or am I supposed to feel confused?? Curse you, art!

wtf just happened

WTF
