Nach Van Van Dance Company
With stirring enthusiasm, expressive imagery and infectious dance sequences, “Nulle part est un endroit” (Nowhere is a place) is a tribute to the dance style Krumping. Krump stands for “Kingdom Radically Uplifted Mighty Praise” and developed in the early 1990s in African-American communities in Los Angeles.

Nulle part est un endroit / Nirgendwo ist ein Ort
This powerful dance form serves as an expression of danced resistance to social inequality and discrimination - and offers a creative outlet for what concerns and moves the dancers. In a danced lecture, choreographer Anne-Marie Van alias Nach tells of the origins and meaning of Krump, its development into an artistic and community-strengthening practice and how the spirit of Krump resonates in the Andalusian duende.
“Nowhere is a place” weaves Nach's artistic practice with archival materials and anthropological research on the Krump community. She gives an impressive account of her encounter with the highly coded world of Krump, the battles, the freestyle sessions on the street and the intense energies of this dance form.
As part of “PURPLE – 9th International Dance Festival for Young Audiences”
The performance on January 24th is a school performance
