Pour rien mais dans le bon sens
Claudia Triozzi
In 2024, Dance Reflections by Van Cleef & Arpels is supporting the presentation of Pour rien mais dans le bon sens by Claudia Triozzi as part of Les Inaccoutumés Festival.
In Pour rien mais dans le bon sens, Claudia Triozzi invites us to a performative experience that builds on the “transmission through the body” approach she has been exploring since 2011. This year, she has further developed her research as part of a hospital residency with the Festival d’Automne.
Working with a group of elderly people, Triozzi creates a choreographic-performative language in which artistry and endurance reveal the potential of these bodies which are often far-removed from the stage. Drawing on the gestural expressions of residents of various eldery care facilities and using exercises borrowed from adapted physical activity, the choreographer fosters moments of joint creativity and stories to be shared. In Pour rien mais dans le bon sens, Triozzi seeks to engender a “vacillating presence” by interweaving space, sound, body matter and playful objects from everyday life. Triozzi uses shadow, reflection and echo to explore the many possibilities of staging a “traversed body,” at any age and without the artifices of theatricality.

Claudia Triozzi began studying classical and contemporary dance in Italy before moving to Paris in 1985. Alongside her work as a performer with Odile Duboc, Georges Appaix, François Verret, Alain Buffard, Xavier Leroy and Xavier Boussiron, she has produced iconoclastic shows, tableaux vivants, from which dance never emerges unscathed. In March 2011, invited by the Musée de la danse in Rennes, she began a new project entitled Pour une thèse vivante, in which she reflects on writing as an artist. Her work is developed both on stage and through videos and installations exhibited in museums and galleries. She is developing a teaching approach based on her own work, teaching at various art schools in France and abroad.
