VENERE IN TEATRO Dance Festival
Venere in Teatro - Dance festival relies on the ongoing action of Live Arts Cultures which since 2012 has proposed the contexts dedicated to the dissemination of contemporary languages, in particular dance and music.
Venere in Teatro recalls in its name -Venus in Furs - a film directed by Roman Polanski's (2013), which was entirely set in a theatre: here the theatre is acting as a place for life and, similarly, we propose a festival that cites a theatre as a place which can absorb and interpret changes, speaks of the human being and uses any form and language for the penetration of the concepts and aesthetics of the contemporary creation.
By placing the language of the body and the writing of the body in the centre of the scenic space, Venere in Teatro evokes the symbolism of Venus as transmitted by myth, goddess of beauty, and love: the theatre interrogates the beauty and reveals eros - the charm, the drive, the attraction towards what is not necessarily known and achievable; the dance, in its ephemeral nature, evokes open interpretation leading the audience to an interpretative freedom that nourishes a critical observation and a careful look.
