Gelabert dances Novarina is the result of an encounter between two great creative artists: the choreographer and dancer Cesc Gelabert; and the writer, painter and stage director Valère Novarina. This unusual collaboration, brought about by the theatre director Moisès Maicas, is enriched by a careful reading of Novarina’s texts. The fusion between the mystical world of Gelabert, whose dance is always full of words, and Novarina’s philosophical universe, inspires a kind of alchemical process in which the dancer dances the word and the writer writes the movement. In a disappearing act, these two highly individual artists meet on stage to establish a dialogue that surveys the very limits of art and seeks the essence of movement, word and thought. As Cesc Gelabert says, the purpose is “to dance without reaching the limits of the tendons and to use the threads of awareness to stop the movement”.
