Claudia Castellucci
Dramaturg, choreographer and teacher. In 1981, Claudia Castellucci founded the Socìetas Raffaello Sanzio with Romeo Castellucci and with Chiara and Paolo Guidi. In 1989, she started the Scuola teatrica della discesa, an experience in which she combined gymnastics with philosophical practice. In 2003 she founded Stoa, a school of rhythmic movement that lasted five years, in which are created Balli, dances based on an interpretation of movement that considered time as the main dimension. In 2015 she created the Mòra School, which became a Company in 2019. Claudia Castellucci received the Silver Lion for the Dance Section at the 2020 Venice Biennale.
Claudia Castellucci proposes a series of exercises inspired by The Treatment of Waves, a dance by Castellucci based on the sound of bells and performed with a staff. The sound of bells, with its extension over time, engages individual listening, which in movement becomes linked to presence and memory.
In the second part of the workshop, following a moment of dialogue, the choreographer proposes an exercise in drawing from life, understood as an act of observation and mental knowledge, and as an obedience to inert things.
