Mouvement sur mouvement

In Mouvement sur mouvement, Noé Soulier reproduces as precisely as possible sequences from William Forsythe's Improvisation Technologies. These are brief lectures in which Forsythe outlines different tools for analyzing and creating movement. He performs short improvisations and makes numerous gestures that indicate, underline or comment on other movements. These gestures are not choreographed by William Forsythe; they appear as he explains his approach to movement. By treating them as dance movements, Noé Soulier attempts to give them a different status: what was an explanation of dance becomes dance itself. In this way, the choreographer attempts to question the way in which movement can speak about movement.
