Aires d'autoroute
After a 'metamorphosing' encounter with art performer Keith Hennessy, I had the strong desire to invite all my preferred performer for a crazy lab about artistic performance. Almost all of them came, alternately or simultaneously. 15 dancers, actors, or performers, were gathered for the 5 most exciting and tiring weeks of my career.
« Aires d’autoroute » celebrated the art of inventing collectively, autonomously, freely, without any leadership. We impersonated visionary, involuntary, spontaneous, atypical artists; we jumped all together in a big thick cloud of ideas, concepts, intuitions, obsessions, bodies and minds in action. We integrated everyone's madness and know-how to create 10 public openings and 4 marathons of 24 hours of performance with free access to the audience.
