The group 

Accords perdus (Paris Île-de-France) 

Consisting  of psychomotor specialists, the group Accords perdus seeks to explore  the link between dance and psychomotricity, by questioning the body  fundamentals such as flux, weight, shape, fall, and link. Since  2014, the group has met regularly to lead workshops around a creation,  allowing triggering of specific notions, such as weight, in the piece ”Solides” with the company Catherine Diverrès in 2017. The group also conducts laboratory work geared towards improvisation and choreographic writing. 

The project 

Eight men striking the ground, spinning, falling, united by a haunting rhythm. ”D’après une histoire vraie” is the result of a moment of revelation: before a traditional men’s dance, Christian Rizzo had the intuition of a group of men linked by a set of shared gestures. Steered by this imaginary horizon, he gave form to a dance of the earth, intimately tied to the rhythm that shakes the stage. An  abstract rite, powered by the energy of the two drummers, blurring the  boundaries between folk and contemporary music, the solitude and intensity of the group.  

Rizzo, Christian

Christian Rizzo was born in 1965 in Cannes. His artistic career began in Toulouse, where he started a rock band and designed a line of clothing, after which he studied fine arts at the Villa d'Arson in Nice, then unexpectedly branched out into dance.

In the 90s he performed with a number of contemporary choreographers including mathilde monnier, herve robbe, mark tompkins and georges appaix, and sometimes created soundtracks and costumes for them as well.

He also worked with choreographers with a different artistic approach, such as vera mantero, catherine contour, emmanuelle huynh and rachid ouramdane.

In 1996 he founded l'association fragile and began presenting events, dancing objects, solos and group pieces, as well as various projects and commissioned work in fashion and the visual arts.

Since then, over thirty projects have borne fruit, not counting his pedagogical activities. Christian rizzo teaches on a regular basis in art schools in France and abroad, as well as in establishments devoted to contemporary dance.

On January 1st, 2015, Christian Rizzo takes the lead of the National Choreographic Center of Montpellier. Now called ICI (International Choreographic Institute), the CCN offers a transversal vision of creation, training, artistic education and openness to the public.

[1970-2018] Neoclassical developments: They spread worldwide, as well as having multiple repertoires and dialogues with contemporary dance.

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.
