Paris’ Grande halle de la Villette played host to William Forsythe‘s dance-based installation “Nowhere and Everywhere at the Same Time No. 2.”
The choreographed performance art was comprised on hundreds of swinging pendulums that swayed together in timed moments. This encouraged visitors to dance while dodging the mounted plumbobs.

An artist statement reads, “The spectators are free to attempt a navigation of this statistically unpredictable environment, but are requested to avoid coming in contact with any of the swinging pendulums. This task, which automatically intimates and alerts the spectators innate predictive faculties, produces a lively choreography of manifold and intricate avoidance strategies.”
Check out the video below that shows a version of the installation at the Museum Folkwang in Essen, Germany.
