Having
observed the different formats and contexts in which the X-Event cycle
took part (choreographic programmes, theatres, exhibition spaces,
contemporary art biennials), we initiated an experimental process which
establishes a critical reflection of the frameworks of actions invested
by the field of performance. Our desire is to reveal the social
mechanisms and conventions that link artistic practices and political
engagement.
The projects proposed in the re|action process use the conditionings, interpreting
vectors of action, contact, and appearance assigned to dance and
performance. This attitude creates different ways of managing
individuals, dancers, choreographers, and methods of inscription. Our
intervention, placed in various contexts, re-assigns a status to the
individual citizen, using dance.
re|action openly instigates a sharing of responsibility in the artistic
process. Each application and each context require a particular
implication. The operators of a project assume part of the
responsibility in the unfolding and justification of the proposed piece.
The strategy of communication employed before the materialisation of
each project is an important aspect of re|action. The elements that
make up this aspect are reinterpreted each time, due to the context and
its
singularity. Their successive appearance creates a coherence that
embodies the sense of our action. An archive of the work is created,
that provides the durability of the journey that we propose as artists
and
choreographers.
