    Le ballet de danse physique contemporaine a été créé en 2015 par l’auteur chorégraphe David LLARI.

    La  danse physique contemporaine est un langage qui repose dans l’intention  derrière le geste. Le mouvement dansé, habité avec authenticité,  s’émancipe de toutes formes de danses déjà existantes. Le danseur, dans  sa pleine ipséité, peut alors servir les pièces de l’auteur.

    Résultat  d’une chorégraphie d’anticipation et de recherche, les chorégraphies du  BDPC posent un regard singulier sur le monde et la société. Au-delà des  scènes spécifiques à la danse, le BDPC se déploie sur des lieux comme  l’espace public, les monuments, les musées ou les zones urbaines les  moins habituées à recevoir des manifestations culturelles. Le BDPC a  recruté ses danseurs à l’international : France, Angleterre ou  Allemagne. Le BDPC dispose de ses compositeurs, d’une équipe de  techniciens audiovisuels, de son personnel administratif et d’un réseau  de collaborateurs ponctuels, issus de diverses disciplines artistiques.

It is a center for creation, production and distribution of choreographic pieces, a resource center for training and research. It is a shared place, a place open to artistic creation, to contemporary repertoire. It is a place accessible to all, where people come to see, do and talk.

    With a background in hiphop and all its influences, we represent a new generation of choreographers. Our driving force—dance, as well as art brut—draws on self-taught skills and takes on a universal dimension that informs our values. It is dance that allows us to forge a cross-disciplinary dialog with other aesthetics and to be in touch with reality. We affirm the use of making (faire) as a way of relating to the world, as well as a method of appropriating, through action and reaction, our immediate environment and of infusing it, whenever possible, with desire, poetry, justice, imagination, joy, sharing, and community…

    Gathered together, enriched by our differences and by our individual artistic approaches, we have been able to sweep aside the residual modalities of writing specific to our respective fields of aesthetics. We thus invite you to discover our worlds and partake in the auteur dance that fits perfectly within the panorama of contemporary dance.

    La Compagnie Irène K. est une Compagnie de danse contemporaine fondée en 1977 par Irène Borguet - Kalbusch, qui depuis lors en assume la direction artistique.
     

     Les chorégraphies ne se veulent pas narratives; l'espace s'ouvre dans  toutes les directions, dans de toujours nouvelles constellations. C'est  l'être humain, ses désirs, ses angoisses, ses visions qui sous une forme  ou une autre sous-tendent le propos du travail.
     

     Les danseurs qui collaborent au travail de la Compagnie sont des  professionnels de différentes nationalités. La Compagnie Irene K. a  développé un style personnel contemporain proche du "Tanztheater".
     

     Outre les spectacles de danse sur plateau – y compris pour les enfants,  la Compagnie propose des performances dans des lieux et des  architectures intéressantes. C'est en se pliant aux contraintes de ces  lieux et même plus en les exploitant que naissent des images nouvelles,  fugaces mais combien surprenantes.
     

     La Compagnie Irène K. développe régulièrement des projets pédagogiques, créatifs ou interdisciplinaires.

With his own company but also as a guest choreographer (CCN Ballet Nancy, Norwest Tanzcompagnie, ...), he weaves a policy of exchange, meetings, training and choreographic culture. His work addresses a reflection around the very subject of dance, with fidelity to the notion of line. His precise gesture is full of details and is organized as a calligraphy of the intimate, where the movement constantly seeks human material.

    Following the steps of Dominique Bagouet (1984 to 1992) and Mathilde Monnier (1994 to 2013), it is now Christian Rizzo’s turn (since 2015) to write a new page in the book of the National Choreographic Centre of Montpellier (CCN, Centre Chorégraphique National). Now named ICI, for Institut Chorégraphique International (International Choreographic Institute), the CCN develops a transversal vision of creation, training, artistic education and audience outreach. With its foundations firmly set in practices and territories, the new project is above all a zone of prospection which integrates artists, writes the score for choreographic act and explores the expression of shared experience. In the face of the transformation that dance is undergoing today, it is necessary to pursue and reactivate the momentum of this tool for choreographic creation, production and training. In this way, the ICI—CCN project explores ground common to all it does, in order to weave connections based on curiosity and ambition between artists, audiences, students, non-professionals and researchers. " A mix between experimental academy and caravanserai. " ICI—CCN is designed like a home for artists. It is an open laboratory, respectful of the past and looking towards the future, a cross between an experimental academy and a caravanserai: an experimental academy: like a particle accelerator focusing and driving creation, research, training and production of original knowledge. a caravanserai: the ultimate place for dialogue, boosting diffusion, transmission and outreach to the general public and to new horizons. Intertwined and mutually dependent, the two concepts come together in this hotbed of creation, fed by the challenges of dance and all that comes with it. The doors of the house are wide open to all those wishing to join the adventure, and come on board for this singular journey to discover choreographic multiplicity and the abundance of creative diversity.

    Created in 2011, the Nawel Oulad Company leads contemporary dance projects in close connection with the visual arts and the human sciences. The troupe unites around hybrid artistic projects, shows but also performances, installations, and films. The choreographic writing begins with an encounter with a subject, a landscape, a material, then the sensations, the words and the images are incorporated to give birth to movement and spatiality. The creations question our relationship to the world and to our history (collective and individual). In this approach, the company invests the stage but also places where it is not expected: the corner of a street, an abandoned building, a gallery, an apartment ... Convinced of the importance of art as a vector of social bond, the company offers workshops and meetings during the presentation of the pieces.

    In 1993, Olivier Meyer created the Suresnes Cités Danse festival. Born from the meeting, in July 1991, with Doug Elkins, a young New York choreographer and hip hoper, the Festival is dedicated to urban dances and aims to be a laboratory of experimentation and ideas promoting new choreographic forms. Over the course of its editions, Suresnes Cités Danse has given its letters of nobility to hip hop dance and offered not only influence in France but also internationally to new choreographic proposals.

    WLDN is a project and a philosophy at the same time. The title references the renowned book Walden by Henry David Thoreau (1817-1862), American essayist, teacher, philosopher, naturalist and poet. This novel, published in 1854, influenced many schools of thought and served as a reference for those seeking to reconnect with basic values. Thoreau recounts his two years experience living independently in the middle of nature.

    WLDN can be portrayed as a kind of ‘transcendental striptease’, which represents for me coming back to the fundamental essence and a simplifying of work, of stripping down, but also, back to the most elemental, even the most primordial aspects of performance in terms of dance, movement, and site. This simplicity can and does involve stage work and public space work but also includes productions of the kind of work that can easily be documented and published with the tools at hand which includes platforms such as social media : iphone, internet, facebook…

    What is it in Thoreau’s action that can be mirrored in our changing cultural landscape with the contemporary tools we have in creating, recording, notating, publishing, dissemination ?
