IMPROVISATION

In ‘Improvisation’, Pauwels films Pierre Droulers improvising to the music of Thierry De Mey in a one-sequence shot.

A dancer and a camera-man limited in space and time. Both improvise within the confines of this setting. An uninterrupted take. We hear the tones of an exciting staccato rhythm. "Improvisation': not an extract from a fluid continuity but a race with a predetermined time. Not the certitude of a well considered preparation, but the spontaneity of the momentary. The experiment, the adventurous exploration enriches the experience, the memory, the vocabulary so well entrenched.
