As part of the “Swans never die” project which at Fabbrica Europa also includes L’Animale by Chiara Bersani and Swaën by Camilla Monga in a single evening

The project invites some young artists to revisit in a contemporary way “The Dying Swan”, originally choreographed by Michel Fokine for Anna Pavlova in 1905.

 

While we speak, time will have escaped greedily.
Grab this day.
Horatius

Living like I know I’m gonna die is a dance for five bodies.
Two couples and a single one form a group in reciprocity, a single body made by linked arms unfolds in a network of lightning-fast encounters that cross the space with a progressive and unavoidable rhythm.
The sudden rhythmic character articulates a continuous, intensely dense and intrinsically fleeting movement, destined to change, dissolve and end challenging time and its ephemeral nature.
In this way Pavlova danced the dying swan for Fokine, like a real fight against death, embodying a constant symbol of the transience of existence and of the life’s things.

Collettivo MINE is the result of the artistic encounter between Francesco Saverio Cavaliere, Siro Guglielmi, Fabio Novembrini, Roberta Racis, Silvia Sisto.
MINE is a collective experiment of creation that aims to carry out a research work focused on sharing practices and languages.
