Lyon, terre de danse

A melting pot of French contemporary dance, in an eclectic spirit, Lyon has seen the birth of an impressive number of choreographers and personalities who have contributed to its national development. Lyon also unites a unique ensemble of dance structures and events in France: La Maison de la Danse, the Lyon Opera Ballet, La Biennale de la danse and its parade, which brings together amateurs from all over the world. the Lyon agglomeration and professional choreographers.
Mourad Merzouki, from the suburbs of Lyon, has succeeded in transposing hip-hop from the street to the stage. This major choreographer has among others created in 1998 Recital, show flagship of the hip-hop scene.

Merzouki, Mourad

A major figure on the hip-hop scene since the early 1990s, Merzouki works at the crossroads of many different disciplines: he adds circus, martial arts, fine arts, video and live music to his exploration of hip-hop dance. Without losing sight of the roots of hip-hop movement – of its social and geographical origins – this multidisciplinary approach opens new horizons and reveals original outlooks. Since 1996, 30 creations have been performed in 700 cities and 65 countries, with more than 3,000 performances given for 1.7 million people. Since 2009, Merzouki is director of the Centre chorégraphique national de Créteil et du Val-de-Marne, where he created the festival Kalypso, a Parisian twin of his festival Karavel in the region of Lyon. In 2016, he is also appointed artistic director of Pôle en Scènes in Bron.

Exposition Corps Rebelles

The exhibition Corps rebelles invited the public to discover contemporary dance. She presented the different approaches of the dancing body, illustrated by emblematic choreographies.

The question of interpretation was also at the heart of the exhibition with eight versions of The Rite of Spring created by eight great choreographers. The exhibition continued by treating notation as a tool for memorizing and transmitting a gesture.
