onde de choc: the new Ginette Laurin's work
In her new work, Ginette Laurin probes the inherent sonority of the body, exploring and amplifying the sounds that are directly generated by the dancers' movements. The work will premiere at the Festival TransAmériques on May, 28-30.
La Chambre Blanche (re-creation 2008)
After the resounding success of three European tours, three weeks of shows in Montreal, and two representations at the Festival de Marseille (France), La Chambre Blanche (re-creation 2008) was presented at the Festival Oriente Occidente (Italy), on September 7 and 8, 2009 and at the Festival Internacional Cervantino (Mexico), on October 28 to 30, 2009.
Created in 1992, the original version of La Chambre Blanche has toured extensively in Europe, North America, Israel and Asia and won the 1992 Grand Prix of the Conseil des arts de la Communauté urbaine de Montréal and the Dora Mavor Moore Award in Toronto.
La vie qui bat (revival 2009)
After the successful re-creation of one of her most powerful pieces, La Chambre Blanche, choreographer Ginette Laurin now intends to restage La Vie qui bat in its original version. A unique experience of dance and music (Drumming, Steve Reich's famous work).
The piece premiered at the Dance Triennale Tokyo (Japan), on October 5, 2009.

Artist's Residency Policy Since its founding in 1984, O Vertigo has dedicated itself to research and creation in dance, with equal emphasis on training and the development of the discipline in all its forms. Since the recent opening of its new creation centre at Place des Arts (Centre de Création O Vertigo: CCOV), the company has reaffirmed its mission, and, in the spirit of sharing resources, it is offering other artists in the dance milieu access to these new facilities which provide optimum conditions for practising the discipline. |
