The main inspiration for this performance are „Unique Forms of Continuity in Space“ – the masterpiece by sculptor Umberto Boccioni – and the idea of dancing on an imaginary soundtrack for the Boccioni‘s sculpture. A production, that literally carves itself into the place in which it takes place and creates a scenario of great impact, is an immersive experience that personalizes the place of performance and makes it unique.
IL POSTO VERTICAL DANCE and MARCO CASTELLI SMALL ENSEMBLE
Wanda Moretti, a choreographer and researcher, whose dance studies focus on systems of proportion and the harmony of the space. She is the first dancer in Italy to have undertaken vertical dance in 1990, developing and spreading this practice before creating a special technique and creating performances in which space and movement merge in a single scene. In particular, her artistic project concerns the relationship with the architecture and the landscape, the dance insinuating itself in any vertical environment and conversing with it, adding a value that completes the actual place. The vertical dance performance by Wanda Moretti has been already presented at International Dance Festival AURA’20 (2010)
Marco Castelli is one of the most talented Italian sax players, with a brilliant and prolific career and a broad artistic activity. In his long career he has travelled without prejudice across many different musical languages, highlighting the qualities present in each form of expression and always pursuing a very personal sound, free of clichés but rich in emotions and atmospheres.
