GUSTAVO CIRÍACO with ALI TALAAT
16 > 19 APR 2024
Escola Secundária Gil Eanes
The choreographer Gustavo Ciríaco returns to GYMNASIUM for a second artistic experimentation lab with an 11th grade class from the Gil Eanes Secondary School in Lagos.
Accompanied by Egyptian architect and artist Ali Talaat, the work to develop with this group of young people dialogues with the Tools For Tomorrows project, in a cross between If Copy Then Value, a research project on ownership and authorship initiated by Ali, and Yesterday’s Tomorrows, the performative learning platform conceived by Ciríaco.
By merging choreography (Ciríaco) and object design (Talaat), these sessions seek to create the basis for a landscape and a context for interaction.
Gustavo Ciríaco (BR / PT) is an artist and choreographer born in Rio de Janeiro and living in Lisbon. His work brings together elements of dance, landscape design, architecture, anthropology and the visual arts. He has used movement, text, video and photography in conversational works where the encounter is king.
To paraphrase Gustavo, he likes, among other things, what each work brings out as a possibility for the world.
