Aterballetto dances in Germany and Switzerland
From May 9 to 25, Aterballetto travels through the heart of Europe, performing at the prestigious Maifestspiele in Wiesbaden and the Ruhrfestspiele in Recklinghausen, thanks to the collaboration with the Istituto Italiano di Cultura in Köln.
We work with a wide range of choreographers and formats, to embrace every creative, cultural and social opportunity. The on-stage performance is still the focus of our artistic project. But we are also curious to see what happens to the body and its aesthetic power in different formats and settings.
The body is our medium, and beauty is our inspiration, but to portray contemporary aesthetics and issue we dialogue with the whole system of culture and broad social fields. It is not enough for us to dance everywhere, today it is important to do it with everyone.
Come and explore the world of dance in Fonderia, home of the Fondazione Nazionale Danza / Aterballetto, the only National Choreographic Centre in Italy. More than 50 appointments with Italian and foreign dance companies, meetings and special events.
