The Artylogica workshop was conceived by choreographer Vittoria de Ferrari Sapetto as a translation of logic into the art of dance, which is often a utopia, as dance is constantly evolving in relation to us. There are millions of logical solutions, and on 14-15 July each participant will try to find their own, starting from finding an essential individual question, related to where they are at the moment.

CONCEPT
Vittoria de Ferrari Sapetto: “The aim of my research and work after all this years of performing and working as an artist is to generate the right question that each person is searching for.
I won’t give any answer cause this is eventually what every artist will be busy with in their own journey. To understand which is the “right question” I will propose different kind of exercise, engaging different technical abilities of our body; passing through strong physical dance movement till arriving to more physical theater guided improvisation .We will focusing on searching new path way in order to enrich our movement vocabulary. My interest is on acknowledging our habits or limit and try to break it or simply change it to open new different possibilities eventually for a new creating process. The work in couple or small group will certainly allow each dancer to explore easily the “unknown” sfere ,aswell as the big influence that martial art brought into my research. The workshop will explore the technical body aspect of our movement and bring it to dynamics and space and different architectural space awareness that can help us understanding the natural source of it.”
