a lecture-performance by Giselda Ranieri (IT)
20 February, 19:00
I SCREAM – Performative Methodology is the final presentation of a three-week residency in Bucharest. This event will take the form of a lecture-performance, where Italian choreographer Giselda Ranieri will share her artistic research on the relationship between body and voice within the spectrum of laughter and crying. Through a combination of videos, images, and live performative demonstrations, she will illustrate her technique and methodology, offering the audience an immersive experience into her creative process. This evening is not just a presentation but an invitation to witness and engage with a practice that explores the fluidity of emotional states, the plasticity of the body-voice, and the transformative power of movement.
The lecture-performance is free of charge, all people interested should book their place by making a reservation by email at areal@arealcolectiv.ro or WhatsApp number 0722.322.366
