L'ombre des jumeaux [remontage 2017]
An extract remodelled by L’Arc contemporain (Strasbourg), artistic manager Michèle Rust, as part of the “Danse en amateur et repertoire” programme (2016) (a programme created to assist and promote amateur dancing).
The group
The dancer Michèle Rust, Dominique Bagouet’s interpreter, is behind the setting up of this group of amateur adults created in 2011 in Strasbourg. In 2013, she developed the project Clin d’œil à Dominique Bagouet that allowed the dancers to immerse themselves into extracts from three favourite pieces of the choreographer from Montpellier. Also as part of the “Danse en amateur et repertoire” programme, in 2014-2015, Michèle Rust helped them discover one of Régine Chopinot’s many facets in Sous le signe de Saint Georges.
The project
Under the leadership of Sylvain Boruel, the interpreter of Michel Kelemenis’ creation for the Ballet de l'Opéra national du Rhin, the choice of L’Ombre des jumeaux (1999) was the result of a desire to explore “the voices of dynamic multiplication”. The treatment of space, the breadth of the choreography, and the speed of changing support, all trimmed with fantasy and humour, were also responsible for this choice. One sequence of the work takes place in silence and offers the possibility of enhancing the listening process, the presence with the other and whetting gestural consciousness.
The choreographer
The director and initiator of KLAP Maison pour la danse, which opened in Marseille in 2011, Michel Kelemenis, a contemporary scene personality since the 1980s, has woven an artistic path with multiple inspirations supported by a limpid, precise style of writing. Surfing between narration and abstraction, a collaborator with companies such as the Ballet du Grand Théâtre de Genève and the Ballet du Rhin, he has also placed his talent at the service of stage directors such as Klaus-Michaël Grüber and Luc Bondy. A pedagogue, he has set up workshops in a variety of countries, including South Africa, since 1994 and also teaches within higher educational structures.
Kelemenis, Michel
French dancer and choreographer born in Toulouse in 1960.
After training as a gymnast, Michel Kelemenis begins dancing in Marseille at the age of 17. In 1983, he performs in the Centre Chorégraphique National de Montpellier with Dominique Bagouet and choreographs his first works, among which Aventure coloniale with Angelin Preljocaj in 1984. He was awarded the Villa Médicis Hors les Murs prize in 1987, and founded Kelemenis & cie (Association Plaisir d’Offrir) in the same year. In 1991, he received the Leonardo da Vinci scholarship and Japan’s Uchida Shogakukin fund. His numerous works (more than 60, of which 40 for his company) are performed throughout the world.
In love with movement and dancers, with those exceptional moments when gesture topples a role, Michel Kelemenis structures his works around the search for a balance between abstraction and figuration.
For his personal style, which combines finesse and athletic performance, the choreographer is invited to work with the ballets of the Paris Opera, the Rhin Opera, the Opera du Nord, the Geneva Opera and the Ballet National de Marseille.
In 2000, he directed the lyric and choreographic drama, L’Atlantide, by Henri Tomasi for the Marseille Opera. He has since collaborated with the Festival d’Art Lyrique of Aix-en-Provence: in 2003, he put to movement 4 animalacrobats in Stravinsky’s Renard, directed by Klaus-Michaël Grüber and conducted by Pierre Boulez; in 2004, he assisted Luc Bondy for the chorus movements in Handel’s Hercules, conducted by William Christie.
Since 2008, he starts a reflexion about narration concept, with an approach of creation for young audience.
Through Franch Institute, he participates regularly with French cultural services abroad in Krakow, Kyoto, Johannesburg and Los Angeles, in India, Korea and China. These trips engender training projects, new productions and bilateral exchanges with foreign companies and artists employing various modes of expression.
Numerous programs are organized in higher education and professional training institutions (Coline, Ecole Nationale de Danse de Marseille, and especially with the Conservatoire National Supérieur de Musique et de Danse de Lyon).
The 10th of december 2007, after 10 years of activity at the Studio/Kelemenis, the Conseil Municipal of Marseille votes in favor of the project Centre de danse en résidence conceived and initiated by the choreographer. Intituled KLAP Maison pour la danse, Construction begins in February 2010 with a completion date planned for spring of the following year.

Zeriahen, Karim
From live stage images to life in images, the director and video artist Karim Zeriahen seems to have found the shortest way. Since the beginning of the 90s, when he worked in close relationship with choreographer Philippe Decouflé, he learned how to put the art of stage in motion, contemporary dance most of the time. Karim Zeriahen then starts a fruitful collaboration with Montpellier based choreographer Mathilde Monnier. Stop, Videlilah, day of night, short films adapted from her stage creations. Each time, Karim Zeriahen's camera takes over the place with movement, the body language is not frozen but magnified. Choreographer Herman Diephuis also joins this gallery of dancing portraits. Documentaries on figures such like Albert Maysles or Hubert de Givenchy and from Joe Dalessandro to Paul Morrissey, he sets a signature, a camera always in action with confidence.
Today the director goes further with a new project and tracks the subtle movements of the body language beyond the physical appearance. A collection of living portraits as unique pièces reminding us of the master portraitists of renaissance. These living natures consists in filming the subject in a certain amount of time, almost still, with signs of respiration, eye blinks, as if it were posing for a painting. They are then displayed on a flat screen with a memory card. With this collection starting, Karim Zeriahen, with his documentary and artist vision, interrogates himself about the virtual world filled with images. By taking a pause, and his models with him, he questions the way we look at things, the way we look at life.

In the 1970s, artists’ drive towards a new classic had been ongoing for more than a half century and several generations had already formed since the Russian Ballets. As the years went by, everyone defended or defends classical dance as innovative, unique, connected to the other arts and the preoccupations of its time.
