FNAS Lab 2024

Partendo dalle ultime creazioni site specific di Piergiorgio Milano si analizza la metodologia che ha portato alla realizzazione di queste performance. L’importanza di lavorare in natura, in ambienti estremi; la relazione tra danza, circo, musica e paesaggi naturali. I moltissimi problemi logistici e tecnici. L’effetto sul pubblico. Dall’idea visionaria al sogno, passando per il caos!

Dance theater piece made and performed by Florencia Demestri and Piergiorgio Milano. Inspired by the book of R.D. Laing Recorded at Deltebre Dance Festival 2011 Spain. “Cross a real door to enter in a child’s drawing.” Inside a simple childish form we bring the game of adult cruelty; the violence of lying and of seducing to overcome situations. Reading the book of R.D.Laing is like assisting to an intimate review. His verses and conversations go straight to some of our deepest worries, aggressions and puzzles. We choose to work towards a tiny balance between meaning and form. We want to develop a lucid and bizarre body language with a minimal but layered aesthetic. We want to confront the audience with the image of a reality deviated by a deep craziness, letting go all our judgment about values. Our goal is to push the imagination of the audience toward its bigger complexity; giving them the possibility to decide which is the true key to read the piece.

Imposing spaces / Exposing People In this approach, rather then adapting a performance or installation to a space, it radically departs from it. The artist choses the type and intensity of various performative elements, styles and codes in relation to what a space offers and in consideration of the variable presence of people.

On November 7, 2020, the second lockdown was announced in Lithuania. It is true that this time it was a "cosmetic" one, closing the most "dangerous" places - galleries, museums, libraries, theaters and leaving large supermarkets to operate as places of supply of essential goods. Spanish Street Theater director Adrian Schzvarzstein, actor Mindaugas Ancevičius, and dancer Jūratė Širvytė-Rukštelė decided to save and carry the art of theater where it is "safe" to say - IKEA.
