Scholz, Uwe

Uwe Scholz was born on December 31, 1958 in Seeheim-Jugenheim, Hesse, Germany. He died on November 21, 2004 in Berlin, Germany.

During his short life, this former wunderkind created over 100  ballets, including major stage successes such as Die Schöpfung, Die  Grosse Messe and Bruckner 8. Scholz was regarded as a sensitive, highly  musical artist with a fine sense of humor, but again and again, he was  plagued by an excruciating perfectionism, self-doubts, and fears. At  times, they made work impossible for him.  

“Sometimes the great artist’s path  does not lead to laurel-wreathed solitude, but to deep despair,” writes  the ballet critic Klaus Geitel looking back on Scholz’s life. The film  Soulscapes is a highly personal, moving portrait of Uwe Scholz, who died  on November 21, 2004, at the age of 45. In one of his last interviews  with the director Günter Atteln, Scholz talks about himself and his work  with an unprecedented openness. “I’m drawn to symphonic music from the  Classical and Romantic periods. I simply need these soulscapes.” Uwe  Scholz

Plasson, Fabien

Born in 1977, Fabien Plasson is a video director specialized in the field of performing arts (dance , music, etc).

During his studies at the Ecole Nationale des Beaux-Arts de Lyon (joined in 1995) Fabien discovered video art. He was trained by various video artists (Joel Bartoloméo Pascal Nottoli , Eric Duyckaerts , etc).
He first experimented with the creation of installations and cinematic objects.

From 2001 to 2011, he was in charge of Ginger & Fred video Bar’s programming at La Maison de la Danse in Lyon. He discovered the choreographic field and the importance of this medium in the dissemination, mediation and pedagogical approach to dance alongside Charles Picq, who was a brilliant video director and the director of the video department at that time.

Today, Fabien Plasson is the video director at La Maison de la Danse and in charge of the video section of Numeridanse.tv, an online international  video library, and continues his creative activities, making videos of concerts, performances and also creating video sets for live performances.
