From Monday 9 to Friday 13 May 2016, Fabbrica Europa will host the intensive workshop Yellow Labor led by choreographer Cristina Caprioli, linked to the creation of the interactive installation Notes on a Pebble.

The laboratory will investigate the notion of expanded choreography by performing a series of transferences between text, gesture and image whereby narrative proliferates signification.
The work will provide insight in the art practice of Cristina Caprioli and the ccap company, where choreography and transference are indistinguishable, and one another constitutive.

The workshop will be structured in two parts:
from 10.00 to 13.00 : lectures and discussions
from 14.00 to 17.00 : working on the installation Notes on a Pebble

Applicants must send their CV, ensuring the presence for the entire period, to
teatrodanza@fabbricaeuropa.net within April 25, 2016.
Selected candidates will be contacted by April 27.

Born and raised in Italy, Cristina Caprioli studied in Sweden and the US. After a dance career in Switzerland and Germany, she moved to New York to focus on contemporary dance studies and worked with choreographer Douglas Dunn. Back in Europe in the early 80’s, in 1998 in Stockholm she founded the independent dance company ccap for which she has produced over 30 works, among which Trees and Omkrets that were presented at Fabbrica Europa last year.
Her choreography is marked by clarity, stringency and precision as well as complexity and strong physicality.
Her interest in theory marks all of her work, on stage and beyond. To practice, investigate and develop her matters of interest, she has curated and produced the festivals Talking Dancing (1997) and Movement is a Woman (2002), the research projects t.lab (2004) and after cover (2009-2011), published the dance anthology Choreographies (2008), and most recently curated and produced the Weaving Politics symposium (2012).
