"Dance plays out the event before the event's nomination." Alain Badiou

For the book presentation, the artist will propose the original, unreleased version of the performance, Before the Name, after the Mountain, in which the thinker and the dancer, occupying the space alone, creating a strong common expression, sparking a dialogue between body and intellect. This version of the work draws on the idea of dance as an essential and metamorphic movement, as well as experience and encounter with the art of life in all its aspects, closely related to the emergence and transformations of physical and mental states. Before the Name: after the Mountain is a special, site-specific project created for the temporary pavilion at Villa Romana, and will feature the critic, curator and thinker Pier Luigi Tazzi and Luna Cenere, an independent dancer who has worked with such choreographers as Simone Forti, accompanied by original music by Emiliano Zelada.
