5.8.2020 German premiere of WORK by Claudio Stellato at festival ATOLL Karlsruhe
At the ATOLL festival (Karlsruhe, Germany) Claudio Stellato presents the next stage of his research between body and object as a German premiere: WORK. Nails, wood, paint, a few tools and seemingly trivial, everyday gestures characterize the scene. This is where work is done, no question.
10.2.2020 awarded at MOMIX festival 2020:
Just a few days after the premiere in Les Halles de Schaerbeek / Brussels, the piece WORK was awarded the prize of the MOMIX 2020 Festival Jury on Sunday, February 9th, 2020. Congratulations to Claudio Stellato and his team!

WORK
the next step of Stellato's research between body and material
Nails, wood, paint, some tools and everyday gestures that seem unimportant, revisited and transformed into a fantastic DIY workshop.
As if they follow an assembly manual of a parallel universe, the characters / craftsmen are working on a site where everyone has their role. They perform precise gestures resulting from hours and hours of routine. Here, physical efforts are pushed to exhaustion which sometimes leads to an absurd result.
Their normality is in our eyes an absurdity. As the materials and the scenography elements transform successively, real paintings start to appear. The spectator witnesses the complicated, illogical and absurd creation of a work of art.
In this universe of the absurd and the strange, bricolage is not treated in its raw form. It is repeated, ritualized, coordinated and detached from its original function in order to bring it closer to the practices of dance, circus, music and visual arts. With his third creation - after L'Autre (2011) and La Cosa (2015), Claudio Stellato gets further into his research between body and material.
Claudio Stellato is a multidisciplinary artist who has been interested for a long time in new relationships between the body and matter. Dancer for different companies, then choreographer. His company Cie Claudio Stellato is based in Brussels. Stellato is an associated artist at the Halles de Schaerbeek in Brussels. He is a jury member of Circus Next.
