Marco Berrettini on iFeel3 and Live Arts Week V at MAMbo Bologna
Marco Berrettini discusses his works iFeel2 and iFeel3, presented at Live Arts Week V at MAMbo in Bologna. In iFeel2, a couple performs a slow, repetitive dance, described as an eternal present. Berrettini cites readings of Peter Sloterdijk and Ayn Rand as influences, aiming to digest these materials rather than illustrate them. iFeel3 is a parody of contemporary thought's inability to affect reality's vanity, inspired by Melville's Bartleby and Jung's shadow concept. The choreographer seeks a transcendent form, moving away from Tanztheater, to create an echo in the audience's mind. The interview was conducted by Stefano Tomassini, who teaches at IUAV University of Venice.
