Septmber - 13. September pictures of (e)motion was founded in 1995 in cooperation with tanz performance köln and the Kunst- und Ausstellungshalle der Bundesrepublik Deutschland and has dedicated itself to presenting new artistic worlds resulting from the dialogue between dance and film, video as well as computer technology. pictures of (e)motion offers numerous possibilities of experiencing dance with newest audiovisual technologies. This leads to a fascinating encounter with the dance and its physical quality and electronic, bodiless media. This
year pictures of (e)motion will concentrate
on bringing out a world premiere. IL FUOCO, L`ACQUA, L`OMBRA world premiere A Projekt
by Konception:
Paolo Rosa, Fabio Cirifino, Leonardo Sangiorgi, Stefano Roveda ALDES
- Associatione Luccesse Danza e Spettacolo coproduktion
by Studio Azzurro with pictures of (e) motion. Tarkowskij's films revolve around the discovery of the fantastic dimension in reality. IL FUOCO, L'ACQUA, L'OMBRA is a tribute to this great film poet, who enriches reality with images of the possible and imaginary. In his films he opens up the rich palette of images that nature has to offer from an obscure perspective. The infinite aspects of what is visible are also a main focus for this piece which is subtitled The dance of nature in Tarkowskij's images: Five contextual elements - earth, fire, water, wind and shadow - continually move away from the tangible the more the electronic media used melts together with the dance and the music. . Supported by projections and bodies in motion, a moveable roting platform causes a continual transformation of the performance space. This effect mirrors weightlessness, which is a part and parcel of the element of nature.
The
Studio Azzurro from Milan is a pioneer
and protagonist in the development and realization of interactive
video installations, stage sets and works of art in Europe. Founded
in 1982 by Fabio Cirifino (photography), Paolo Rosa (video/film)
and Leonardo Sangiorgi (graphics/animation), Stefano Roveda (interactive
systems) joined the team in 1995. Since the beginning of the 80s
they have produced more than 50 videos and presented numerous projects
in venues such as the dokumenta 8 in Kassel. At around the same
time they began working with international artists of all areas
such as Giorgio Barberio Corsetti, Peter Greenaway and Giorgio Battistelli.
Giorgio
Battistelli's
works for the stage always offer space for the imagination, they
are fictive and timeless and allow room for experimentation without
losing touch with the work as a whole. He continually searches for
open multi-dimensional systems which allow the integration of unforseen
and contrasting experiences.
Originally
a dancer at the Teatro e danza la Fenice under the direction of
Carolyn Carlson, in 1983 Roberto Castello
began to choreograph his own pieces, e.g. for Sosta Palmizi. In
Enciclopedia (1991)- a series of 30 solos - he developed a language
of movement which comments dances of the 20s and 30s humorously,
partly on the verge of the absurd. Since founding his company ALDES
in 1995, Roberto Castello has continued to work on an expanding
level in the area of multimedia combined with dance. For his last
production Biosculture he developed a multimedia dance installation
which aside from a live performance includes video projections and
3-D animation. His research in this area finds its continuation
in collaboration with Studio Azzurro for the world premiere of IL
FUOCO, L'ACQUA, L'OMBRA.
