Together they&#8217;re in search of the space between the notes in the compositions of Claude Debussy, who fiddled around with the hegemony of rules.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Their movements are suggestions rather than expressions, in line with Debussy\u2019s search for \u2018la musique immat\u00e9rielle\u2019. Rather than evoking a steadfast reality, Gruwez and Chevallier install an imagination behind the gauze of the material.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>For the first time in her career Gruwez is getting involved with classical music. After her formation in classical ballet she found freedom in contemporary dance, gradually developing a language of movement that&#8217;s referential by now. In this respect, <em>Piano Works Debussy<\/em> is a unique dialogue between a classical and contemporary framework that somehow uncovers her choreographical trajectory.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Lisbeth Gruwez: &#8220;<em>Piano Works Debussy<\/em>\u00a0is an aquarelle. Think about the airiness of colours that flow in one another, dry for a while, and become moistened again to establish new connections.

Together they&#8217;ve created 10 productions already, e.g. <em>It\u2019s going to get worse and worse and worse, my friend<\/em>, <em>AH\/HA<\/em>, <em>We\u2019re pretty fuckin\u2019 far from okay<\/em>, <em>Lisbeth Gruwez dances Bob Dylan<\/em> and <em>The Sea Within<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Their work is an ongoing conversation between corporal and auditive movement: Gruwez and Van Cauwenberghe direct each other in order to achieve an organic symbiosis within a fixed frame. This brings in the element of performance that identifies every production: the connection between the aural and the visual\/physical is always (a)live. Their performances have been shown at the festivals of Avignon, Julidans, Tanz im August, Dance Umbrella and the Venice Biennale.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Voetvolk is allied to Troubleyn | Jan Fabre and the Royal Museum of Fine Arts Antwerp as &#8216;company-in-residence\u2019 and &#8216;artiste associ\u00e9&#8217; of Le Quartz &#8211; Sc\u00e8ne Nationale de Brest.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>About <em>Lisbeth Gruwez<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Lisbeth Gruwez (\u00b01977) studied at the Royal Ballet School of Antwerp and at P.A.R.T.S., kicking off her professional career at Ultima Vez in <em>The Day of Heaven and Hell<\/em>, a project on Pasolini. From 1999 onwards she worked with Jan Fabre on performances such as <em>As long as the world needs a warrior\u2019s soul<\/em>, <em>Je suis sang<\/em> and the famous solo <em>Quando l\u2019uomo principale \u00e8 una donna<\/em>. Being one of Fabre&#8217;s <em>guerriers de la beaut\u00e9<\/em> (\u2018warriors of beauty&#8217;) she was to be seen in Pierre Coulibeuf&#8217;s film of the same name. Apart from that, she&#8217;s worked with Jan Lauwers, Grace Ellen Barkey, Riina Saastamoinen, Sidi Larbi Cherkaoui and Peter Verhelst, amongst others. She also played the leading role in <em>Lost Persons Area<\/em>, Caroline Strubbe&#8217;s first feature film.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Apart from her work for Voetvolk, Lisbeth regularly conducts workshops and other types of artistic advisory and coaching.
