With generous humor and radical empathy do they elevate notions of human imperfections into an art form beyond clichés and appearances.
Drawn from the sculpture The Three Graces (Antonio Canova, 1812-1817) - representing Zeus’ daughters Euphrosyne, Aglaea and Thalia - the three male performers together with the choreographer Silvia are searching for new meanings of the word ‘grace’. With dance and text, but most of all with warmth and lightness, the performance reveals a core of our humanity.
Over the past ten years, Silvia Gribaudi has been questioning gender sterotypes, female and male identities and the concept of virtuosity in dance and daily life.
She likes to define herself as ‘author of the body’ because her poetics elevates imperfections to an art form with a direct, cruel and empathetic comic style without any boundaries among dance, theatre and performing arts.
