Quelques-uns le demeurent
Artist : Alexandre Fandard
Year : 2018, France/ Dance
Venue : Lido Connect / NOV 10 at 19:30 (Double Bill)
In Some remains so Alexandre Fandard explores the radical otherness that lives in each of us. Inspired by the quote from Samuel Beckett, “We are all born crazy. Some remains so”, this poetic piece is an exploration of the physical body through psychological madness.
The choreographer reveals a single man engaged in a bizarre fight. What does it tell us? Is it perhaps under the grip of a force that kills the words and torments them? Or is he simply crazy?
Awarded by 3 international prices, Quelques-uns le demeurent is the first choreographic work by Alexandre Fandard who here investigates a radical alterity, inherent in each of us. Paradox inscribed in a body that uproots itself from nothing before being sucked into it.
In the depth of darkness, on the border between reason and madness, while the body struggles, creation is born.
