CREATING, RADIATING...
Our complete tour schedule at carolyn-carlson.com
Poetry Event
Within a context of improvisation, dance, readings, visual arts and music are
intermingled with snapshots from Carolyn Carlson’s imagination. Conceived
and experienced in consonance with the place where it is presented and
the artists participating in it, each "occurence" constitutes a unique event,
a special moment populated by a poetic expression of infinite liberty.
To be seen this season in Grasse (Museum) in May 18.
Crossroads to Synchronicity
Performed by 6 of the company's leading
figures, this work inspired by Carl Jung’s synchro-
nicity, lays bare the vital aspirations that inspire us
and explores these strange coincidences that
resonate in us with such intensity.
A journey into today’s and yesterday’s Ameri-
ca at the crossroads of singular and universal
memories.
Premiere in November 17 in Theatre de Rungis, then on tour including in MAC
Créteil (April 18), Opéra de Tours (June 18)…
Transmitting, perpetuating
The Carolyn Carlson Company is a beehive,
a place where creation and transmission are deeply mingled
Transmitting, perpetuating
Masterclasses
Throughout her career, Carolyn Carlson has taught all around the world, influencing
generations of dancers. Performances are regularly accompanied by master classes
conducted by the choreographer or workshops led by her dancers, faithful transmitters
of her technique and her universe.
Repertoire
Carolyn Carlson continues to transmit her repertoire to the most prestigious corps
de Ballets. If to leave is to remember will be undertaken in 2018 by the ArtEZ
Academy in Arnhem (NL) then by the ballet of Teatro Massimo in Palermo (IT).
And the Ballet of the National Opera of Helsinki will undertake Pneuma.
Carolyn Carlson has also transmitted her solo work in homage to the painter Mark
Rothko to the prima ballerina Marie-Agnès Gillot. (Premiered in April 2017 in
Houston, USA).
From the BnF to Numeridanse
In parallel with the mammoth task of archiving undertaken by the BnF (National
Library of France) following Carolyn Carlson's gift of her notes and drawings, the
digitization of her video archives has now been taken over by the company and has
been made available to a large extent on Numeridanse.tv.
TRAVERSING, OPENING...
Carolyn Carlson's ties to poetry and the visual arts traverse
her 3 favorite countries: France, Italy and Finland
More information and videos at carolyn-carlson.com
The dance of Carolyn Carlson has always been intimately related to the plastic arts, as much in terms of
inspiration as by incorporation into her dance. With the ephemeral gesture lies the necessity of fixing the
movement on paper. She has painted since the 1970s, and several exhibitions of her calligraphy and
drawings will be mounted starting in 2017.
After the Museum La Piscine in Roubaix (summer 17), the exhibition will travel to the Museum
Toulouse-Lautrec in Albi from March to May 18, as a part of a “Carlson season” in the Tarn (perfor-
mances, workshops, events…)
Carolyn Carlson has staged the extraordinary voyage of a rebel confronted with the
terrifying aspects of his own Self, which are what bring him, ultimately, to love. The first
full-length film by the choreographer, co-written with the director Damian Pettigrew, The World is a
Wildflower (working title) is a paradigm of the humanity of the artist, an exploration of the crisis at the
heart of the human soul where myth and dreams can heal our wounded illusions…
Interpreted by 40 dancers and actors. Coproduction Carolyn Carlson Company / Portrait & Cie.
Shooting planned in 2018-19.
