Moving in November presents: Giorgia Lolli – BODY SWEATS (for Elsa)

BODY SWEATS (for Elsa) is an homage to Baroness Elsa von Freytag-Loringhoven (1874–1927), a poet andavant-garde artist, a pioneer of the Dada movement. The title is taken from her eponymous collection of poems, an erotic and proto-punk manifesto. Created by choreographer Giorgia Lolli, the work combines dance, lecture performance, poetry reading, workout: sweat will be a way to explore the intertwining of effort and pleasure, the binding force of a heterogeneous collage of dance and textual materials. Love letters between friends and lovers. Waterless aqua aerobics in tiger-striped leotards. A poem for the Baroness. A split, in her honour.
