Info

In 2021 the National Center for Dance Bucharest proposed, as part of the project “(In)visible bodies and stories – guided performative tours”, a series of performative tours guided by artists from the contemporary dance sphere, thus mediating physical and emotional links with the choreographic memory of Bucharest.

Keeping the same format, the three guided tours of BIDFF#10 connect participants with the spaces in Bucharest where choreographer Adina Cezar trained, danced and created, on a route that starts at the Bucharest National Opera and ends at the National Theatre “I.L. Caragiale”, placing them on a broader map of the initiatives, attitudes and artistic approaches that have contributed to the development of the Romanian choreographic area.

“We were a wild group” is excerpted from a broader response by choreographer Adina Cezar to a question about the artistic rationale and the cultural context in which the Contemp Group emerged. Starting from this statement, the guided tours coagulate temporalities and events and frame them within a broader construction of Romanian dance, to which Adina Cezar made a relevant contribution.
