Lia Courrier
When did we deliberately start destroying our host environment? When did we stop caring about the consequences of our actions?
After years of futuristic and robotic fascinations, art and dance return to nature, observing it, exploring it, becoming spokespeople for an environment that is now irreparably compromised, in the hope that it is not too late to reverse the processes and change our gaze.
Lia Courrier, founder of Artichoke, a choreographic training project focused on contemporary dance and teacher at the ArteMente High Training Centre in Milan.
She trained at the Scuola Professionale Italiana Danza (S.P.I.D.), then obtained the title of professional operator in Craniosacral Biodynamics at the Istituto Itado in Turin and became a yoga teacher.
Today, she is the author of the SetteOtto column for the trade magazine Dance Hall News, edited by Francesco Borelli, as well as the author of the book In Viaggio con la Danza.
In collaboration with Centro ArteMente and Mart - Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art of Trento and Rovereto.
