VISAVÌ MEETS ART


with Marta Bevilacqua, Valentina Saggin, and Anna Savanelli
Production: Compagnia Arearea
With the support of: MiC, Regione FVG
In collaboration with: ERPAC FVG

How do we approach a work of art? What actions does it inspire? What mark does it leave on our body? What do we take in from each visit? What detail lingers with us?
Visavì meets Art explores the relationship between movement and space, through the production of site-specific events in places of art that are not conventionally designated for live performances.
The project is part of Marta Bevilacqua’s poetics of exalting the detail: the pictorial stroke, the historical context, the sound vibration. This artistic promenade winds its way through the rooms of the museum and offers the audience an itinerant performance, an unconventional and extraordinary visit among the works and tableaux vivants which come to life through dance.

Following the great success of the Visavì performance in Piazza Transalpina, which crowned the first edition of the Visavì Gorizia Dance Festival, this new project stars again the Udine-based company Arearea with a site-specific performance in several museum sites of the city.

interview

Have you been to Gorizia before?
Yes, it’s a very charming city, both for its history and architecture.

What do you look forward to doing again?
Strolling at a brisk pace along the border of Transalpina Square, drinking a good coffee in St. An-thony Square, eating a huge “lubianska” only to regret it when it’s bedtime.

What awaits you after Visavì?
Good things await me, I will have busy a season of repeat performances, the start of higher educa-tion projects in which I believe a lot, the study for my new work. And new adventures in life.

You have the power to do one thing to change the world of dance: what is it?
I would give right value to all men and women working in the performing arts, I wouldn’t support only the big organizations, but I would also make sure that dance artists could survive better and study more.

If you could give one piece of advice to yourself as a child, what would it be?
I would advise her to have more confidence in her talent and to travel more. To be more lighthearted.

And to a new dance company moving its first steps?
To believe in the power of the group, whatever it takes.

Three words to describe what dance is to you.
Symbol, detail, togetherness.

Tell me briefly what your show is about. Now convince me to come and see it :)
It is a special walk in a beautiful museum, the encounter of three women with spaces and master-pieces. It is a work that focuses both on the static image and the moving image. It is an unusual op-portunity to see figurative art and listen to good music. A chance to get lost in a labyrinth of bodies.
