The nelken line in Rome

The NELKEN LINE IN ROME is an homage to Pina Bausch, responding to the international Call “DANCE the NELKEN LINE!” launched by the Pina Bausch Foundation. This project, realised by the Urban Laboratory DANCING ARCHITECTURE, gathered the participation and contribution of many people and professionals, moved by their passion for Pina Bausch and her art. An inspiring and learning experience, discovering step by step the magic of each movement of the “Season’s March” and living the city of Rome as a sequence of evocative settings. Feeling the city centre as an open theatre and the dance as an urban ritual, we went through a thrilling adventure, full of creativity, humanity and cooperation. 25 Dancers, 11 nationalities, moving throughout different locations in the city of Rome, and making physical experience of the relationship between dance and architecture, human body and the body of the city, space and movement. The NELKEN LINE IN ROME is a pilot project, a first experiment of DANCING ARCHITECTURE to bring dance and creativity throughout the cities and to promote their beauty and their unique culture.
