SWING by Vava Ștefănescu, designer:  Tudor Lucanu opens on Friday 1 November at 7pm in the "Euphorion" Studio. With: Vava Ștefănescu and Irina Wintze (voice).

 

SWING is an installation-performance for body, voice and light. I have reduced the space to a small surface, with new rules for the body, the rules of hanging and balancing. In this experience, I provoked my body and put it through an unexpected situation: to play and to explore the new conditions of gravity, weight and contact with the ground and I hope to "see" during the working process the "new" poetic or dramatic meanings which appear in this new context. The meanings can reveal themselves with intensity, both on the level of visual and sound images and on an emphatic level, through the transfer of sensation or body experience. This is an apparently technical working method which I created while working on QUARTET FOR A MICROPHONE in 2008.


Next to the "one set - one situation", another principle of this working method was to treat the sound as a moving body. In SWING, Irina Wintze leads the words, the live voice, like an independent body which collides with the dancing body. The dance-body and the voice-body gather and filter, like a fine guidance for the audience, the images, the sensations and the unsuspected expressions of the balancing, suspension, fear of falling, speed, and the illusion of flying...

The International Meetings in Cluj are organized by Cluj-Napoca National Theatre since 2011 during the "Priority: Romania" Program. The 2011 edition was dedicated to the Romanian surrealist poet and playwright Gellu Naum and the 2012 edition was called "The East-West Meetings". Through this program, Cluj-Napoca National Theatre aims to support, protect and promote the Romanian theatre on an European an international level. Due the involvment of Cluj-Napoca National Theatre and its partners in the organizing of this event we believe that these Meetings will initiate and consolidate a national and international creative dialogue. The festival aims to create a dialogue platform and facilitate networking and international exchange.
