A choreographie by William Forsythe.

N.N.N.N. appears as a mind in four parts, four men in a state of constant, tacit connection. Underscored by the sudden murmured flashes of Thom Willem’s music, the men enter into a complex, intense inscription. Their arms, heads, bodies and legs become singular voices, each tuned and in counterpoint to the other. The men write out a text of the voice of the body, slowly, then more and more rapidly, coalescing over and over into a linked entity of flinging arms, folding joints and a sharp, high sense of time.

William Forsythe’s works are known for having removed ballet practice from its association with classical repertoire and transformed it into a dynamic art form of the 21st century. Forsythe’s continuing interest in key principles of organization has inspired him to realize a broad spectrum of projects in the fields of installation, film and internet-based information production.
