THE MOEBIUS STRIP (2001) by Gilles Jobin

A sensual, fluid, hypnotic exploration of a “human sculpture”: the bodies of five dancers pass, cross, follow, intertwine with each other. A video of dance, adaptation of choreographer Gilles Jobin’s “The Moebius Strip”.

The Moebius Strip, created at the Théâtre de la Ville in Paris during the spring of 2001 became one of his most emblematic pieces. “On the stage, viewed as a white painting, bodies are thrown like splashes of colors, mixed as tint areas and given rhythm by the shades of the clothes” (Rosita Boisseau). This creation evokes his father’s paintings, Arthur Jobin, which alternate between geometrical rigor and intensive vibration of juxtaposed colors.

Dominio Publico (2008) by Roger Bernat

Dominio Publico (2008) by Roger Bernat

Public Domain does without the actor as the main aspect of the show and leaves the audience as the only participant. It is not about turning the spectator into an actor, but about fulfilling the narrative possibilities of the group using statistical tools. The spectators are part of a fiction without the need of exposing themselves as individuals on a stage that, on the other hand, has as many actors as spectators watching the show

Fra Cervello e Movimento – Extra Dry (1999) by Emio Greco and Pieter C. Scholten

Extra Dry is the third of a series called Fra Cervello e Movimento. Fra Cervello e Movimento is a set of three performances – Bianco, Rosso, Extra Dry that investigate the dyad brain (cervello) and movement (movimento); a mind that wishes to control and a body that is curious for new sensations. The motive is the interest towards the reactions that inner impulses impose on the body. How can the body surpass its limitations? How open can it be in its responses and what kind of transformations can it take on?
