Pavillon Noir – Et sted for dans
Pavillon Noir er Frankrikes første produksjonssenter dedikert for dans, hvor dansekunstnere kan både arbeide med hele den kreative prosessen og presentere nye verk for publikum. Denne filmen presenterer Ballet Preljocaj og Pavillon Noir.
“An architecture of steel and concrete. A glass skin which allows the outside world to gaze upon the genesis of dance as it is perfected day after day in the rehearsal studios, yet which saves the secret and the emotion of the performance for its 378-seat theatre, set deep within the building.
A place for dance, where creation is buttressed from the very first rehearsals to the flight of performance. A place, a home for the art of dance, whose constant struggle for its mere existence almost likens it to a martial art. Twenty years … that is the time it has taken for this lofty vessel to take shape, for the dreams, the energy, the determination, and the funding to come together. Twenty years … that is the time it has taken to finally have a place to share with you.”
