Today, Laura Colomban from the DanceOutsideDance team has the pleasure to introduce Daniela Perazzo, Senior Lecturer in Dance at Kingston University, who will lead the conversation with Alessandro Sciarroni. This episode is part of a three-part series, enDurANCE, co-curated with Daniela, kindly supported by an Ivor Guest Research Grant awarded by the Society of Dance Research and also by the Race/Gender Matter research group of Kingston School of Art.

Alessandro Sciarroni is an Italian dance and performance artist whose work goes beyond traditional definitions of genre. His creations are presented in the context of contemporary dance and theatre festivals, museums and art galleries, as well as in unconventional spaces. They are created through the involvement of collaborators from a range of disciplines. Among his numerous awards, in 2019 Sciarroni was awarded the Venice Biennale Golden Lion for his dance career. Through the repetition of practice to the limit of the performers’ physical endurance, his works aim to expose the obsessions, fears and fragility of the act of performance. His pieces have been presented all over Europe, North and South America, the Middle East and Asia.
