Contact improvisation in Italy Zipfestival track 4

Contents of the festival: A lively kermis of artists from various countries, have been invited to collaborate in the creative production of events, promoting the cooperation and identification of a transcultural art.
Zip raises the question of the processes of artistic interaction, creates the contact and occasion for cooperation among the guest artists who bare their experiences, affinities and cultural and generational differences to create the festival, together, in Orvieto.
Leitmotif of the Festival is the staging of the Improvisation Performance of dance and live music, mediated by the practice and aesthetics of Contact Improvisation.
This type of dance was founded by the artist Steve Paxton in the United States in the early nineteen seventies, an investigation into the expressive possibilities of the body outside the codified and predefined schemes of the classic approach to movement.
Born in 2000: The festival is held every year in the splendid Etruscan city of Orvieto, transforming the old palazzos into a citadel of the art of improvisation, with a rich program of events, live.
The project is the brainchild of the choreographer Rossella Fiumi, an independent Roman artist with her artistic residence in Orvieto, in Caravajal15 residenza dinamica, and it is supported by the City of Orvieto.
Editions 2004, 2005 and 2006: Among the special guests, Simone Forti, Daniel Lepkoff, Andrew Harwood, Ray Chung in dance, and Stefano Bollani, Antonello Salis, Gabriele Mirabassi, Pierre Favre, Michel Godard in music. The festival has grown in visibility, attracting hundreds of dancers from throughout the world, enthusiasts in the field and an international audience.
