With the support of
A major choreographer on the international contemporary scene, whose jagged, powerful writing has left its mark on major stages, Tânia Carvalho undertakes a tribute to Pierre Boulez as the basis for a spectacular walkabout with three entry points: dance, music and the museum. The piece, the fruit of an unprecedented joint-project between the Lyon Biennale and the Festival d'Automne, weaves a vibrant dialogue between the arts and the city.
Only a multi-talented artist could rise to the challenge of taking over the Musée des Beaux-Arts de Lyon and the Musée d'Art Moderne de Paris with over thirty music and dance performers from the two national Conservatories, and a piece based on a unique canvas of scores entirely centred upon the emblematic works of Pierre Boulez. Choreographer, dancer, pianist, composer, singer, actress and visual artist, Tânia Carvalho draws upon the rhythmic, resonant and expressive diversity of Boulez's pieces as the basis of a fascinating ecosystem for the development of movement, thereby revealing a physicality specific to his music. In the quasi-architectural framework of his musical language, gestures appear via resonances, frictions and counterpoints, in line with all the spontaneity of the generation that carries it along, taking us to a magnetic junction-point between future and heritage. The aesthetic pleasure of this is multiplied tenfold via the interlacing of dance, music and Fine Arts.
