From July 2023, Mercedes Dassy, Demestri+Lefeuvre and Damien Jalet are the new associate artists at Charleroi
danse for the next three years. These three companies, who have all followed very different paths, share a highly physical and visual approach to dance, a taste for hybrid forms in their representation of the body, and each in their own way are engaged in issues relating to culture, mythologies and the links between the organic and the technological.
This new series of danced lectures feeds into and supplements the work we do on choreographic culture that already features prominently at the Legs festival.
A danced lecture is to be understood here as a lecture on dance and/or as a dance performing a text or idea.
