From November 28 to December 12, 2023, dance meets cultural diplomacy and travels with Italia Danza: the new project by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation (Maeci), curated by CCN/Aterballetto.
Realized through the General Directorate for Public and Cultural Diplomacy, the project unfolds in collaboration with the Italian Cultural Institutes, with the support of the Emilia-Romagna Region and the City of Reggio Emilia. The objective of Italia Danza is simple: to enhance the Italian Cultural Institutes, places that remarkably represent cultural diplomacy worldwide, by bringing some creations from the only National Choreographic Center in our country: CCN/Aterballetto. It’s a cosmopolitan project entrusted to the universal language of the body, which CCN/Aterballetto interprets with its rich heritage of site-specific creations.
“Italia Danza, which we will host on December 7th at the Italian Cultural Institute in Stockholm, transforms the idea of choreography starting from the relationship with the spaces in which they are presented. In Aterballetto’s MicroDanze, space is no longer just a place of consumption but becomes part of the choreography itself, allowing a different interaction between the audience and the performers. The project is particularly significant for our venue, designed by Gio Ponti and Pier Luigi Nervi. The dancers will guide the Stockholm audience through an evocative journey that will reinterpret the spaces envisioned by the great Milanese architect.”
