Laboratoire

The artists invited in 2017–2018 will occupy one of the studios on a regular basis and share their latest research with the public. The public is invited to keep abreast of these experiments via the social networks and through the CN D’s newsletter.

The Laboratory initiated by Collectif W – Joris Lacoste and Jeanne Revel in 2016/2017 is continuing in 2017/2018.
 

Collectif W – Joris Lacoste, Jeanne Revel

The laboratory initiated by the collective W in 2016/2017 is continuing this season. W is a research collective that is developing an original system of notation for performed action, Organon. During this lab, the system is being used to notate performances, as well as processes that do not fall within the sphere of art by considering them momentarily as performances. The collective is inviting dancers and choreographers, as well as specialists from various fields: ethnologists, sociologists, astrophysicists, neurologists, political analysts, somatologists and economist, among others.

This research project aims to create a performance lasting 5 hours for spaces in the round, with a few chairs and cushions and the possibility for the public to wander around, come in and go out. During the creative process that Myriam Gourfink is planning across two years, the project can evolve gradually and adapt to different places: raw spaces, dance studios, stages, galleries, corridors, open air. The work of research and creation is carried out in modules, each of which can be the object of a performance.
