Zoom and acceleration on an explosive work: the radical vitality of Marie Chouinard.
Over forty years, Marie Chouinard has built a choreographic, visual, and mythological universe that has no equal in this world. In "Radical Vitality, Solos et Duos", the Quebec choreographer and current artistic director of the Venice Biennale’s Festival of Contemporary Dance offers a new take on her futurist mythology and torrid sensuality. In twenty-four miniatures, this visual artist of the body travels through her repertory as if in a kaleidoscope. From her pieces created between 1980 and 2018, she selects solos and duos lasting from one to thirteen minutes, set to a strong rhythm. Going beyond a simple reinterpretation, "Radical Vitality, Solos et Duos" is heightened by new costumes, mise en scène, and sound environments. A return to the source of an artistic journey, for a doubly surprising close-up.
