Founded in 2012, The School of Narrative Dance offers an alternative system of education based on emancipation, inclusion and self-teaching, initiating multidisciplinary international projects focused on narration and choreography. The project has already been developed in more than 25 cities: London, Miami, New York, Rome, Zurich, Manheim, Berlin, Oulu, Mantaa, Ebensee, Gotheborg, Malmö, Copenhague, Shenzhen, Rivoli, Cuienca, Bregenz, Paris, Kassel, Evora, Turin, Cold Spring, Cagliari, York, Utrecht, Palermo, Johannesburg, Venise, Milan, Modica, and soon in Amsterdam and Geneva.

Marinella Senatore’s art (IT, 1977, based in Rome) is that of a pure energy flowing from short-circuits between the different elements she gathers in a single (real or virtual) space. The artist’s role is to activate a mechanism for producing a transformative force from the convergence of the elements that enter it; a force then transmitted in the surrounding area until it reaches the audience.

In the exhibition there will be five banners specifically created for the occasion, recent collages, and a selection of twenty A4 drawings from the series It’s time to go back to street, representing a more militant side to the artist.
