A city that lets the body and voice of art pass through it, in intimate dialogue with the landscape. From today until Wednesday 7 May, Cagliari becomes the laboratory of “Ecologie dell'ascolto”, a program of performances, dance, sound installations and artistic residences that winds through the Botanical Garden, the Molentargius Park and the Temple of Astarte at the Sella del Diavolo.
The project, curated by Maria Paola Zedda and Nicola Ratti with the collaboration of Enrico Gilardi and created as part of the Progetti Speciali Danza call for proposals by the Ministry of Culture, proposes an experience in which the body and the environment observe and influence each other.
The protagonists of the festival are Italian and international dancers, choreographers, sound artists and performers, who will animate symbolic places of the city. The inauguration is today at the Botanical Garden, with the sound artist Attila Faravelli and the choreographer Maurizio Saiu, followed by three events at the Darsena del Parco di Molentargius, including the performance Flirting with Flamingos by Mike Cooper, which returns to Cagliari ten years after its first presentation.
Tomorrow, instead, we continue with Kairos by Donatella Martina Cabras, an invitation to “waste time” in a collective perceptive experience, and with Water Bowls by the Japanese artist Tomoko Sauvage, at her first appearance in Sardinia.
While Sunday will be the turn of Body Farm by Silvia Rampelli/Habillé d'Eau, which brings to the Molentargius Park an intense reflection on the body and its relationship with the landscape.
Finally, from 5 to 7 May, the dancer Stefania Tansini will be engaged in an artistic residency with Madeleine / Studies for M.
The project also extends beyond the stage, with meetings and workshops held in April in collaboration with schools, institutions and local authorities, with the involvement of institutions such as the Order of Architects and the Fondazione di Sardegna.
