Madeinfilandia 2012, Pieve a Presciano, (Ar)
Two riders with their horses enter the Madeinfilandia’s
airstrip and start executing training exercises and enigmatic
paths attracting the public. Each time the visitors
approach the performers run away taking other positions
in the space, where they start exercising again.
The public wonders on what to do, and what it is supposed
to be followed; at a certain point the two performers
disrupt towards them splitting the public group
into many little satellites. The work reflect on the status
of the performance itself not on the side of the presentation
of a show, but as a consequence of facts that as
an event highlights and creates the public’s and performers’
territories. In line with the concept of absolute
dance, this capacity is not only deserved to the performers
but to the public as well, which usually tends to
submit or just to look at “it”. Therefore they are involved
into an articulated dance that becomes real thanks to
the urgency of establishing the limits and territories.
