CONFÉRENCES / SPECTACLES, Cycle "Danse", La Soffitta, Université de Bologne (It.)

Programme de la "petite saison" dédiée à la danse organisé par la Soffitta, 
7 au 10 Mai 2013
Bologne, Italie

DANZA
a cura di Elena Cervellati

La rassegna dedicata alla danza dalla Soffitta 2013 raccoglie e rilancia un’esigenza sempre più sentita dai coreografi di oggi, quella di mantenere vivi e visibili nel tempo i frutti del proprio lavoro creativo.
Stimolo iniziale è stato un progetto ideato e diretto da Marinella Guatterini, RIC.CI - Reconstruction Italian Contemporary Choreography, che si propone di riprendere e fare circuitare alcune esemplari creazioni nate in Italia tra gli anni Ottanta e Novanta del Novecento. Tra queste, il titolo scelto per aprire la rassegna è Calore, di Enzo Cosimi: risalente all’ormai lontano 1982, è rifiorito nella versione che ha debuttato al Teatro Comunale di Ferrara nel marzo dello scorso anno (martedì 7 e mercoledì 8 maggio).
Tra un passato nutriente e vivo e un presente pulsante e in fieri si muovono pure le scelte della americana UCSB Dance Company, che in un programma composito, intitolato ARC: Featuring American Danceworks, unisce alcune nuovissime creazioni, nate per gli attuali danzatori della compagnia, a due ricostruzioni di titoli risalenti agli anni Sessanta e Settanta e appartenenti a quello che in effetti è ormai un vero e proprio repertorio della modern-dance: Psalm (1967), di Josè Limón, e Shaker Life (1972), di Donald McKayle (venerdì 10 maggio).
Completa la rassegna una tavola rotonda che si propone di riflettere intorno ai temi messi in campo dagli spettacoli in un confronto tra artisti, critici, studiosi e pubblico, nella convinzione che mettere in relazione visioni e parole sia fonte di cortocircuiti sempre benefici e talvolta illuminanti (giovedì 9 maggio).

ATTENZIONE: la replica di La stanza del principe, con Enzo Cosimi, prevista per mercoledì 8 maggio, verrà sostituita da una replica di Calore Leggi la presentazione completa de progetto : http://www.dar.unibo.it/it/ricerca/centri/soffitta/2013/danza/index.html>

The Body: Indian Theatre Special Issues

Two rare collections of essays on Interdisciplinary scholarship and transnational performance research
Guest-Editor: Sreenath Nai
University of Lincoln

The Intellect journal of Studies in South Asian Film and Media brings out two extraordinary volumes on Indian Theatre with special focus on the body (Vol.4: 2 & 5:1)



The body is central to Indian discourse and practice. From religion through philosophy, aesthetics, martial arts, medicine and performance practice, Indian knowledge is about the knowledge of the body. Indian systems of knowledge give great emphasis to the objective and corporeal aspects of physical techniques, training and performance practice. Similarly, the body is understood equally as a site of ‘symbolic appearance’ in everyday life as well as in performance practice, where the presence of the body is marked by the absent ‘real’. The consumption of the body as a symbolic appearance is deeply embedded in Indian thoughts and performance practice: in the religio-spiritual traditions, the body is a means of attaining enlightenment; in the Natyasastra it is an illusory mechanism for the actor’s symbolic appearance and allows the audience to access rasa, the aesthetic experience of performance; in medicine, the body is the site of pleasure, and sickness and disease are hindrances to the pleasures experienced by the bodily organism. The body is always about practice and the practice is the only way to access the body. The practice provides techniques and principles that are objects of symbolic exchange in performance. In this way, the performer’s body is a site of techniques and corporeal principles that generates and reorganizes the artistic (symbolic) practice. The world of performance, therefore, is a scheme of bodily practice constituted by the corporeal techniques and principles that are systematically inscribed in the actor’s body. Training is a bodily involvement of practice, and a process of inscribing the ‘illusory’ drive’ in the performer’s body. Training is a pre-performative process, which formulates the ‘expressive order’ of the body, and stimulates and prepares it for the performance. The body is the only medium to access the body. Practice helps the very functioning of the corporeal logic and the perceptual demand of the body in performance.

Trois journées d’étude autour de la préservation et de la transmission de l’art de la performance et de la danse contemporaine. Sous la direction d’Anne Bénichou, avec la collaboration de Marc Boivin, de Ginelle Chagnon et de Theresa Rowat.

La Fondation Jean-Pierre Perreault et l’Institut du patrimoine de l’Université du Québec à Montréal ont le plaisir de vous convier à trois journées d’étude sur la mémoire et la transmission des œuvres performatives et chorégraphiques contemporaines, les 2, 3 et 4 mai 2013, à la Cinémathèque québécoise.

L’Institut du patrimoine de l’UQAM regroupe des membres du corps professoral et des équipes de recherche dont les travaux portent sur les savoirs, les objets du patrimoine matériel et immatériel et les processus de patrimonialisation. Il poursuit une tradition de partenariat avec le milieu dans la recherche ou dans l’offre d’expertise en matière de patrimoine.
