François Chaignaud & Théo Mercier
Radio Vinci Park
Gasoline, rituals and harpsichord: a ferocious duel inRadio Vinci Park, choreographer and performer François Chaignaud and Golden Lion-winning director Théo Mercier transform this setting into an arena of confrontation, ritual and ambiguity. To the baroque sounds of the harpsichord, played live by longtime collaborator Marie-Pierre Brébant, two figures face off: a fantastical, semi-nude being adorned with bracelets of castanets and bells, and a motionless motorcyclist, fully masked and mounted on his mechanical steed. Through gestures of taming, abduction, duel and aggression, the piece unfolds as a strange and powerful vision — a surreal, ceremonial battle at the edge of control and performance.
In co-production with Fiera Bolzano Fair.
With the support of the Fondazione Nuovi Mecenati – the Franco-Italian foundation for contemporary creation.
Artist Talk with François Chaignaud 24.07.25, 10.00 AM @BoDA (Parco dei Cappuccini)
