Seeking to break out of anthropocentric automatisms in their search for movement, Demestri+Lefeuvre investigate in Troisième Nature the possibility of translating non-human movements through the body. They bet on the possibility of a body becoming a landscape, a surface for the inscription of different ways of existing. They therefore represent an exploratory journey that aims to translate non-human movements through the body. At the centre of a device around which is the audience, a sensitive, non-anatomical body is recomposed, made of a mirroring surface that accompanies the spectators on a journey through the randomness of forms.
Rather than a choreographic phrasing or a defined physicality, the images follow one another, evoking the phenomenon of pareidolia - that spontaneous transformation of the visible that can make us see a horse in a cloud, or a mountain range in patches of humidity. A modelling material that eludes any prefabricated interpretation, the metamorphosis of this ‘third nature’ is a movement of living poetry.

The Sun, symbol of strength and energy, and its cyclical nature give Daniele Albanese the inspiration for this show. Appunti per il sole is placed on a sensorial level, trying to bring the relationship between the observer and the actor back to a primordial level. On stage, two performers develop a language made of repetition, accumulations and variations, creating a written but always unexpected dance, and a musician weaves a dizzying musical structure, with cycles of speed and intensity in progressive growth, and with intervals of sudden suspension. The result is an investigation into time, energy and the very nature of dance.

National Premiere

Between fiction and reality, short film and stage, singular postures and multiple dances, Jeux de société examines the phenomena of belonging in a sensitive choreography where gestures and sounds respond to each other, merge, and collide. After having explored in Heres: nel nome del figlio the universal theme of the father-son relationship, he returns to literature and social sciences with Jeux de société. Repeated sequences, harmonies or counterpoints to choreography… the archetypes of dance meet the rhythms of electronics in a captivating game. Among his sources of inspiration are the research of the psychiatrist Éric Berne on the Ego States, Haruki Murakami's novel Kafka on the Shore and George Orwell's Animal Farm, which guide him towards the metamorphosis of bodies and spaces for a reflection on the transformations that a society can generate.

National Premiere

A spectator, a performer, an iPod and two pairs of headphones: ÉCOUTE POUR VOIR is an artistic experience that connects people through the sharing of a song.
Connected through dance and movement, performers and audience give life to singular encounters, where each brief exchange turns into an intense dialogue, an interaction that is both unique and intimate.
ÉCOUTE POUR VOIR is a project by Médiation Culturelle of the Danse Carpe Diem company, which originated in Montréal in 2009, and in 2022 won the prestigious Prix à la Collaboration Internationale de Cinars award. After having traversed numerous cities and continents, it arrives for the first time in Italy curated by Chiara Frigo.
