THE ASCENT OF MAN. PART III: ACTS OF CONSUMPTION
Jayce Salloum’Acts of Consumption’, to consume or to consume oneself. Sex and violence, sermons of love and social struggle, demonstrations, demolitions. The analogies become almost narrative. From a sex scene to a dissection one, we pass from love to science by interposed organs. Lovers’ hands caress, those of the doctor dissect. Science brings forth technology : screens, clocks, machines.....
L'AVENTURE AMBIGÜE

Two figures stroll through it without ever meeting each other, and cast a circumspect gaze on this architecture they will ultimately fail to appropriate....
OGNI PENSIERO VOLA
Bart Van Dessel - Stefan FranckMemory is acknowledged by the earliest dance theorists as one of the fundamental principles in dance performances.
