International festival for dance, film & new media
presents:
IL FUOCO, L`ACQUA, L`OMBRA (Fire, Water, Shadow)

World Premiere ! World Premiere ! World Premiere ! World Premiere !

"Pictures of (e)motion" was founded in 1995 in cooperation with Tanz
Performance Kšln and the Kunst- und Ausstellungshalle der Bundesrepublik
Deutschland and has dedicated itself to presenting new artistic worlds
resulting from the dialogue between dance and film, video as well as computer
technology. This year "Pictures of (e)motion" will concentrate on bringing out
a world premiere. Studio Azzurro, a pioneer for European video art, was
commissioned to do IL FUOCO, L'ACQUA, L'OMBRA. Together with the composer
Giorgio Battistelli, the choreographer Roberto Castello and his company ALDES
they will open our senses to a synesthetic, interactive theater experience.
IL FUOCO, L'ACQUA, L'OMBRA is a tribute to the great film poet Andrej
Tarkovskij, who enriches reality with images of the possible and imaginary. In
his films he opens up the rich palette of images that nature has to offer from
an obscure perspective. Five contextual elements - earth, fire, water, wind
and shadow - continually move away from the tangible the more the electronic
media used melts together with the dance and the music. Supported by
projections and bodies in motion, a moveable roting platform causes a
continual transformation of the performance space.
