SHIFTING PLACES
VERTICAL DANCE WORKSHOP
LED BY WANDA MORETTI
16-18 May 2017 – In\Visible Cities Festival – Gorizia, Italy
Vertical Dance workshop for dancers, actors and performers
led by Wanda Moretti/Il Posto Company.
The workshop will culminate in a vertical dance performance
with the workshop participants on 18 May 2017, within the programme of
In\Visible Cities – Urban Multimedia Festival.
SHIFTING PLACES is a
workhsop within the vertical city, within the possibility of feeling completely
immersed in the world and slightly moving it.
Vertical dance offers us the freedom of dancing everywhere and gives back a
testimony of a vision of the cities as an accessible and completely open space.
SHIFTING PLACES is an artistic practice that
merges itself in the landscape, which uses the body as a communication
tool, realising a performance in view of constructing temporary communities.
SHIFTING PLACES is a
vertical practices’ workshop that, starting from the observation of the so
called “migrant spaces” ie the spaces that constantly change in the cities, aims
to reestablish the primary bonds between space and the community of its
inhabitants.
We will then explore the ideas of territory and the spaces
in which we feel more strongly connected so that we can give all this back in
an artistic form.
Il Posto Company
Il Posto is the first Italian company specialising in
site-specific performances on vertical places. It was founded in 1994 by
choreographer Wanda Moretti and musician Marco Castelli with the aim of
creating performances on vertical spaces combining dance, architecture and
music, mixing the dramaturgy of the show with the performing spaces, thus
creating new ideas and interactions.
Wanda Moretti is a choreographer and researcher who, in
1990, was the first dancer in Italy to experiment vertical dance, creating
performances in which space and movement fuse together in an unique vision.
