LET’S TRUST THE BODY AGAIN

A whole day of practices and theories, shared with those artists and communities who collaborate with Lavanderia a Vapore; a moment of reflection – together again, albeit spaced apart – starting from the bodies, actual archives often misunderstood, to affirm the importance of finding and listening the emotional concretion deposited into them.

To attend the event, please fill in the form.

PROGRAM
During the day, it will be screened 1 minuto sospeso, meetings with those authors who had taken part in Coorpi’s project La danza in 1 minuto, a videodance contest aimed at dancers, videomakers, directors, writers, musicians, sound designers and enthusiasts who, during the suspension imposed by the lockdown, had accepted the challenge of creating innovative and courageous videodance works with a strong cinematic impact. A touching self-exposure to understand what dance can mean in today’s reality.
– Courtyard | 10.30 a.m. – 12 p.m.
OF SIGNS AND BODIES
Transmission practices with the Balinese Tongkat
by Francesca Cinalli and Paolo De Santis
open to people over 18 years old
A taste of practices on the border between dance and martial arts to awaken and cultivate flexibility, imagination, and orientation, in a dimension of play and discovery of one’s own spiritual architecture of the body through a workmate: the stick.
  
SOLITUDO
curated by Doriana Crema with Raffaella Tomellini and Fabio Castello
with the collaboration of Associazione Didee
open to people over 18 years old
Finding oneself as a community, reconstructing the space of relationship in this time where proximity and distance are measured with a new look. Under the same sky we all resume the measures of how to be, how to share, exchange, develop a sense of belonging and build new forms together. The axes as mediators between the action of the body and space, favoring the creation of images and visions for a creative and performative time.

– Courtyard | 12-12.30 p.m.
DANCING THE COMMUNITY TO RESTORE THE CONFIDENCE OF THE BODIES
with Rita Maria Fabris, PhD in Humanities and Performing Arts Studies, Postdoctoral Researcher – Adjunct Professor at Università degli Studi di Torino and educational dance trainer®
What are the questions that artists/teachers/trainers/conductors are asking themselves today in their work with the communities of dancers or amateurs or people who have not yet met the dance? Starting with some reflections on the verbs educate, teach, pass down, lead, go with, raise awareness and play, the meeting aims to focus with the participants some strategies to restore confidence in the bodies of the dancing communities (temporary or long-term communities). 

– Courtyard | 12,30-2 p.m.
PICNIC at the Dancehouse
A moment of self-organized break, where it is asked you to bring your favorite dish, a blanket and what you prefer to eat, respecting the environment (no disposable meals). There will be no bar service, only vending machines for water and drinks.

WORKSHOP MICRO-LANDSCAPE OF PRACTICES AND DISCOURSES
by Ricerca X
The Workspace Ricerca X team, working in residency in September 2020 at Lavanderia a Vapore, will organise a micro-landscape of practices and discourses, in order to delve into the discussion on the outcomes of artistic research. A public opening gravitating around the question: which formats of sharing apply to the knowledge produced in a research process? In the words of Belgian artist Gosie Vervloessem: How can a slow, almost invisible process be made apparent? Thanks to the presence of the artists invited for this edition – Elisabetta Consonni (Milan), Mirko Guido (Stockholm) e Sara Manente (Brussels) – and of the tutor Bart Van den Eynde, together with the curatorial team of the project – Erika Di Crescenzo, Francesco Dalmasso, Ambra Pittoni, Elisa D’Amico – Ricerca X  will arrange an environment to articulate practices and discourses starting from this and other questions.

SHARED TRAINING TORINO
A collective project curated by Francesco Dalmasso, Elisa D’Amico, Cristina Da Ponte, Claudia Adragna 
Shared Training Torino is a project providing shared training sessions and open classes for over 18 professional dancers and performers as well as experienced dance practitioners. The aim of the project is sharing trainings and research practices that are body and movement related, within the field of contemporary dance. The idea comes from the need of a group of dancers to keep ourselves active and in shape. Additionally, we would like to expand and strengthen the network of Turin-based artists. Sharing and exchanging trainings, tools and practices is a way to explore and deepen one’s expertise, to acquire new skills, offering a chance to meet different experiences and approaches.

GUIDED TOUR in the spaces of Lavanderia a Vapore
A short walk to discover Lavanderia a Vapore and its marvellous history.

TANZ TANZ
A game and dance proposal aimed at children, teenagers and their families
For this season, Associazione Didee together with Lavanderia a Vapore, is going to offer quarterly workshops aimed at children and teenager (and, in some cases, at their families), in order to bring them closer to the contemporary artistic languages ​​of body and the new choreography. Tastings of dance, playful experiences, unpredictable encounters with local and international dance performers, curated by Mariachiara Raviola, artistic director of the project “La Piattaforma – La Città Nuova”. The guideline is the quote often repeated by Pina Bausch, who – guest of a Roma community in Rome in 1998 – was convinced to dance by a little girl: “Dance, dance, otherwise we are lost!”.
The first event, planned on September 26th as part of the Lavanderia’s open day, inaugurates the TANZ TANZ project under the aegis of the word TRUST. The dancers and choreographers Francesca Cola and Tommaso Serratore, starting from their respective (and distinctive) artistic languages, developed in the context of their performances, and from the personal creative experience reached during the quarantine, develop a game and dance proposal aimed at young audience.
Activities:
4-4.50 p.m.
WORKSHOP TIE UP. PLOTS TO THE FUTURE
with Francesca Cola
open to children over 6 years old, accompanied by a family member
“During the quarantine I sent a message to ten loved ones with this request: ‘Would you give me a word that is beautiful to you? I can dance it. I don’t know how to knit but I can weave movements'”. For Francesca Cola, the word becomes gesture, rhythm and play with nature, to be offered to the participants as a dice to roll, a rhyme to sing, a carousel to turn.
5-5.50 p.m.
WORKSHOP MR FURRY
with Tommaso Serratore
open to children over 9 years old, accompanied by a family member
Starting from the “protagonist” of his latest creation, Tommaso Serratore guides the children and their parents on a journey in order to discover the character and how it is created: posture, appearance, movement, rhythm, as well as the space and environment it inhabits.

– Courtyard | 6-6.30 p.m.
YOU CANNOT SUM UP UNTIL THE GAME ENDS
performative practice shared with the group of Campi Creativi
by Francesca Cinalli and Paolo De Santis
