After a residency process lasting several months in Cuba, Spain and Italy, within the framework of the CRISOL – creative processes project coordinated by the Fondazione Fabbrica Europa, in which the artistic team was in close contact with the local realities both from a choreographic and musical point of view, the creation El resto del naufragio was born.
This ambitious collaborative project brings together the Spanish choreographer Roberto Olivan, the Italian musician Pino Basile and the young Cuban artists Chamely de la Caridad Hernández Baquet, dance, and Olber Viquillón Rodríguez, music, with the aim of exploring cultural synergies and merging the essences of their rich traditions. The resulting fusion opens up new creative possibilities, always respecting the cultural context of origin and contributing to a contemporary and enriching interpretation of the tradition of each place.
The main interest of El resto del naufragio is not in exploring cultural incompatibilities, but in focusing on the contrast and convergence of these traditions. An approach that adds a wealth of nuances and allows for new interpretative possibilities. In a globalized context, cultural differences overlap and stratify, creating levels that offer multiple readings and experiences.
A fundamental aspect of El resto del naufragio is the interaction with local communities during the research, creation and representation phases.
Through meetings and workshops, as occurred during the creative process in Cuba, the project encourages exchange and permeability between different human sensibilities, further enriching the artistic experience.
El resto del naufragio does not intend to provide definitive answers, but rather to offer multiple interpretations and readings. In this artistic and human journey, the absolute truth does not exist, but the intention is to bring to light as many perspectives as possible.
CRISOL – creative processes is funded under the Boarding Pass Plus 2022/2023/2024 programme of the Italian Ministry of Culture.
This co-creation and production process is promoted by Fondazione Fabbrica Europa, Asociación Hermanos Saiz (Cuba), ROPA / Roberto Olivan Performing Arts | L’Obrador Espacio de Creación (Spain), Danza Urbana (Italy) and Menhir (Italy), partners of CRISOL, with the support of Escena Patrimonio – GCPHE and Italian Cultural Institute in Madrid, and the collaboration of AECID – Embajada de España en La Habana, Red de Oficinas del Historiador y del Conservador de las Ciudades Patrimoniales de Cuba Habana Espacios Creativos, ATER Fondazione.
