Cheveux de Vénus
CHEVEUX DE VENUS (Hair of Venus) is inspired by Velasquez' painting "Venus at Her Mirror" (The Rokeby Venus). Her perfect figure reassumes the sensual, erotic, and modest pose, but the mirror has disappeared. Lying on a carpet of hair, she is contemplated from behind. Then Venus molts and begins to move. Behind the opacity of this feminine ideal and the reassurance of a smooth body, primitive, strange, and disquieting qualities emerge. Locks of hair are transformed into fur, then sweat, and she becomes an animal. Surrounding the body-landscape, this experimental work of screendance explores and plays with the relationship between image and sound, in order to traverse a form of waking dream...

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.
