Rua da Saudade

Shows

Saudade is a tight knot around the past, a rib of the present. Saudade is looking ahead, towards what does not yet exist or which perhaps will never exist. And so feel life with all the pores of the skin, learn to give the right value to everything around us. Saudade is a swing. An atmosphere, a state of mind, painted by the infinite power of images. By studying how this sentiment found expression, Adriano Bolognino delved into the poetics of Fernando Pessoa and his great aesthetic creation: the invention of heteronyms. Inspired, therefore, by the four main literary personalities of the Portuguese writer, four dancers will interpret different heteronyms with autonomous identities. Each of them felt and explored their own intimate form of Saudade, then relating it to that of the others. With this work Adriano Bolognino experiences a particular feeling that can be crossed alone and in company. A creation that has lack and desire inside. Heartbreak and tenderness.
