Metropolitan Dance Fortnight at La Caldera
Blanc Salvatge_Anna Fontanet (25 minutes)
Authorship, choreographic direction, performance and sound composition: Anna Fontanet – Authorship and musical direction: Anna Fontanet and Guillem Codern – Technical support: Raimon Homs – Photography: Mehmet Vanlı Artistic feedback: Juylen Hamilton, Manel Salas and Nadine Gerspacher
Blanc Salvatge is an investigation into sound and all that it evokes physically and emotionally. A solo performance piece, based on perception of the body as landscape; an artistic experience that interprets space and transforms it with movement.
Mix-en-Scene_Amaranta Velarde and Alba Corral (50 minutes)
Concept and performance: Amaranta Velarde – Visual design and lights: Alba Corral. Production assistance: La Poderosa.
Acoustic, choreographic and visual experience interpreted by a dancer who is also a DJ. Amaranta Velarde will mix live while she dances, accompanied by visual pieces generated in real time by artist and creative technologist Alba G. Corral. The performance realises a journey that experiments with the superimposition of artistic styles and principles and icons of music, dance and visual arts, all mixed together on the sound system and the dancefloor.
