black beauty
black beauty by Annette Stav Johanssen was a performance and an installation, an attempt at creating the perfect balance between horse and rider, time and room, man and woman, potential and option.

Annette Stav Johanssen characterised her black beauty as follows: "A sculpture-like image with sudden acts of cabaret opera and a ballet of hooves".
With a generous helping of humour Johanssen seeks to construct odd, but interesting and seducing images. Rhythmically she switches between the visually distant and the performative immediate, and she postulates simply that everything is ambivalent.
Text excerpts from the program:
"Black Beauty, variation 1 & 2:
Black Beauty. Finally, this time, not only as a horse, but as a horse and rider in one; Black Beauty, here she comes. But does she come alone as one or is there someone else who believes they are the one beyond and runs the show just by their own? Who is riding who? You can expect; a ballet of hooves and an opera from the lost horses, a psychedelic paranoid cinematic sculptural musical experience. Welcome to Black Beauty; the total blackout and the beautiful continuation of the beginning."
