In 2024, Dance Reflections by Van Cleef & Arpels is supporting the Romaeuropa Festival for the presentation of  Mycelium by Christos Papadopoulos and BIPED by Merce Cunningham in a double bill. 

The protagonist of the Romaeuropa Festival’s opening is the prestigious Lyon Opera Ballet which brings together over twenty dancers, with two different choreographies: Mycelium by Christos Papadopoulos, which is inspired by the natural world and invites us into its perceptive atmosphere of sounds and hypnotic movements; BIPED by the great Merce Cunningham- widely considered the father of contemporary dance - which is a pioneering dialogue between dance and technology to the tune of Gavin Bryars and his Ensemble.
