Silvia Gribaudi
A CORPO LIBERO & R.OSA

A CORPO LIBERO

A Corpo Libero is a work that mocks the female condition, starting from the joyful fluidity of the body. From a dramaturgical perspective, the work explores a time of inadequacy, omnipotence, and acceptance within the contamination of expressive techniques.

A dancing body that occupies full and empty spaces; that relates, with its curves and its’ soft parts’, the imperfection that becomes normality, one’s physicality as the surface of an inner world.

Silvia Gribaudi’s  A Corpo Libero is an irreverent performance brought into urban spaces, the cry of revolt by a freedom-seeking woman.

R.OSA – 10 EXERCISES FOR NEW VIRTUOSITIES

R.OSA is a piece perfectly inscribed in Silvia Gribaudi’s poetics; Silvia is a choreographer who, with a baffling irony, stages the expression of a body, of women, and of the social role they are given, through an informal language, creating a relationship with the audience.

R.OSA is inspired by Botero’s imagery, Jane Fonda’s world of the 80s, and the concept of success and performance.

R.OSA is a piece in which the performer stages a “one-woman show,” shifting the audience’s gaze through a dramaturgy that is composed of 10 exercises of virtuosity.

R.OSA is an experience in which the audience members are invited to become, voluntarily or not, protagonists of the artistic action on stage.

R.OSA is an insight into how we look at others and what we expect from them based on our own preconceptions. The piece revolves around a challenge to constantly go beyond one’s limit.

R.OSA stages the revolution of the body, which revolts against gravity and shows its levity.
