<\/strong>Lavanderia a Vapore –<\/strong> <\/strong>Centro di eccellenza per la danza (Collegno) – 13 October 2011 9.00 pm <\/strong> […] Beauty only dies if it is condemned to death. Massimo Tantardini<\/em> Lavanderia a Vapore –<\/strong> <\/strong>Centro di eccellenza per la danza (Collegno) – 13 October 2011 9.10 pm <\/strong> \u00abEmbrace: embrace, contain, enclose… a symbolic vessel, a convergence of essences that project this choreographic voyage as it moves unceasingly and creates relationships. A reflection upon existence as seen through the eyes of another\u00bb: this is how the Compagnia Affari Esteri (Edmond Russo and Shlomi Tuizer) present a project based on the sensitive and changeable relationship between two men, driven by and partners in their quest for identity. The word \u201cembrace\u201d leads to modelling poetic intentions: from a symbolic tale to a relationship between twins, from the social to the feeling body, from a perception of otherness as both a witness and a mirror, as both support and companionship, with elements such as unison, symmetry, repetition acting as echoing formal references. Two American artists are part of the creation process: Christina Clark, a poet, and Oren Bloedow, a musician. <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Four days, sixteen choreographers and seven theatres: Torino presents the official showcase of Italian dance with both emerging and well-known artists.

\nThe solo was created as a study for Matteo Levaggi\u2019s new work, the transposition into dance of the Le Vergini project by the visual artists CORPICRUDI. After its debut at the 2011 Miami International Ballet FEST, and the MILANOLTRE international Festival, the work, which blends electronic and orchestral music and the video work of the artistic duo Corpicrudi, is now performed at the Lavanderia a Vapore. Levaggi is now thirty-four and can no longer be included in the group of \u201cemerging artists\u201d, having gained international choreographic acclaim with important commissions from the Lyon Dance Biennale and from the Joyce Theatre in New York. After training at the school of the Balletto Teatro di Torino (BTT), Levaggi became part of the company and in 1997 joined Aterballetto. He worked with Giorgio Albertazzi in Memoirs of Hadrian dancing the role of Antino\u00fcs. He has created ballets for the BTT drawing inspiration from artists like Andy Warhol and Caravaggio. His eclectic choices have led him to work with contemporary artists like Giovanni Sollima (who wrote the music for Caravaggio in 2004), Heiner Goebbels, B\u00e9la Bart\u00f3k, Gyorgy Ligeti, and electronic composers like Scanner, Autechre, Pan Sonic, Bochumwelt, Bluvertigo\u2019s Andy. He has created choreographies for the Arena di Verona ballet and his duet, Largo, with music by \u0160ostakovic? has been included in the Geneva Grand Th\u00e9\u00e2tre\u2019s repertory. In 2006 he was invited to the Venezia Danza Biennale with a creation for the BTT, in 2007 to the Zagreb Music Biennale, in 2008 to the Lyon Biennale de la Danse, in October 2009 to the Joyce Theatre in New York and in 2010 to BolzanoDanza.<\/p>\nEMBRACE – Creation 2011<\/h2>\n
