On the occasion of the program of the international artistic residency program for contemporary dance promoted by the Italian Ministry of Culture and New Italian Dance Platform NID, we are glad to be able to present, in collaboration with the Italian cultural assosiation VAN, the artist Marco d’Agostin who has been selected for a residency at Sprang in Ål in the period from January 13 to January 24 2025. D’Agostin will present his project «Asteroide» both at Bærum Kulturhus and at Sprang, Ål kulturhus, a regional dance scene and performing arts center.
The «Asteroide» is a tribute to the musical, to its overwhelming and paradoxical logics, to love stories that end as suddenly as an asteroid and to our human, intolerable finitude. With his usual irony, Marco D’Agostin builds a score for voice and body that – moving between paleontology, dance and feelings – tells of the infinite means in which life always finds a way to resist.
