Info
This piece is a way to investigate on the possibilities to deal with politics in artistic work and to have an impact on it, without representing a specific political topic in a demonstrative way, and without using obvious imagery and displaying opinions. It proposes a dance that functions like a protest song: This ›protest dance‹ embodies and communicates the energy of the protest, the urge and the necessity to speak out loud one’s truth, to be heard and to provoke an echo in the collective. Looking at the body as a site of resistance and at its capacity to open a space for having a political voice, choreographer Frédéric Gies and musician Daniel Jenatsch create a compound of intensities in which the spectator is immersed.
