Fugue / Trampoline
Filmed at the Bastille as part of the Summer in Grenoble.
Simplification of any existential trajectory - alternation of falls and suspensions - along a staircase that leads nowhere.
Appearance of a primordial motif - the fall - formed, deformed, reformed ad infinitum.
A spectacular little dance of extreme precision on an invisible score. It is through this method of expressing imbalance that the aesthetic of risk is based. This act is composed by the repetition of a state, not stable, but suspended (standing), progressing and intensifying step by step. The variations of this state confer a tension, a particular expressiveness, making it possible to take the measure of this "prowess and poetics of the abandonment".
Bourgeois, Yoann
Yoann Bourgeois trained at the National Centre for Circus Arts (CNAC) and at the National Centre for Contemporary Dance (CNDC) in Angers. For four years he was a performer with Maguy Marin’s company. His first piece, "Cavale", was a duet on a trampoline with Mathurin Bolze. In 2014 he created "Celui qui tombe" for the Lyon Dance Biennale, in which six artists attempt to stay upright on a moving stage. Since January 2016, he has co-directed the National Choreography Centre (CCN) of Grenoble with Rachid Ouramdane.

The committed artist
In all the arts and here especially in dance, the artist sometimes creates to defend a cause, to denounce a fact, to disturb, to shock. Here is a panorama of some "committed" choreographic creations.

Meeting with literature
Collaboration between a choreographer and a writer can lead to the emergence of a large number of combinations. If sometimes the choreographer creates his dance around the work of an author, the writer can also choose dance as the subject of his text.
