WHITE LINE Oldenburg Staatstheater (DE)
Alex Kros was trained in Dance, Visual arts, Cinema and theater. These different disciplines allow him to walk through the borders of visual arts and dance, creating performances that are open to all kinds of audiences. His works are characterized from the strong images, fascinating lighting atmospheres and delicate dance movements with versatility, fluidity and sharpness. Artistically, he characterizes himself bipolar as his creations are sometimes hyperactive and sometimes minimalist. He is exploring the limits of the human body and how it can transfer energy through the movement and also through the stillness. His creations have been produced by the Bremerhaven Stadttheater (DE), Oldenburg Staatstheater (DE), Greek National Ballet Opera(GR), Royal Ballet School of Flanders (BE), Balleto di Roma (IT), Ballet Du Nord / CCN Roubaix (FR), La Verita Dance Company (BE) and Conservatorium Mechelen (BE) among others. Born in Greece, Alex has a Bachelor of Economics, he studied dance at Greek National State School of Dance (K.S.O.T) and Rallou Manou Professional Dance School (GR) as well as he has an associate degree in Acting And Directing. Since 2014 his work and artistic vision has been focused on the creation of multidisciplinary performances integrating dance, visual arts and cinematic techniques. In 2015 he was awarded as Best New Choreographer from the competition Les Lendemains qui Dansent (FR) and his works has been nominated by Berner Tanz Preise (CH), Rotterdam International Duet Competition (NL), No Ballet Choreographic Competition (DE), Machol Shalem International Choreographic Competition (IL) and Le Grande Scène / Petites Scènes Ouvertes. His projects have been supported by international theaters and organizations such as Scène Nationale Dunkerque /Le Bateau Feu (FR), Centre Chorégraphique National Roubaix (FR), EPCC LaBarcarolle - Spectacle vivant audomarois (FR), Choreographic Centrum Heidelberg (DE), TROIS C-L - Centre de Création Chorégraphique Luxembourgeois(LU), DeSingel (BE), C-Takt (BE) and have been staged at theaters and dance festivals in Belgium, Cyprus, England, France, Germany, Italy, Korea, Luxembourg, Netherlands and Greece.
