Since 2022, Jan Martens combines his role as co-artistic director with GRIP with that of associate artist at Opera Ballet Vlaanderen. With FUTUR PROCHE (2022), he built a performance about the imminent future, together with fifteen dancers from OBV, two children, and harpsichordist Goska Isphording,.. The performance had its world premiere on July 19, 2022 at the Cour d’honneur of the Festival d’Avignon.
As part of the programme MARTENS / DE KEERSMAEKER / BROWN, Jan will create GRACIELA QUINTET to music by Graciela Paraskevaídis in May-June 2024 and rework a section from his solo ELISABETH GETS HER WAY to music by Stephen Montague to ON SPEED.
