    I OFFER MYSELF TO YOU15'
    MORITZ OSTRUSCHNJAK (IT)

    I offer myself to you nasce dalla volontà di incontrare nella distanza, il pensiero, le parole e le immagini di altre menti, altri corpi. Si articola intorno ad una riflessione sul corpo, sulla postura dell’attesa quando è immerso nella sua solitudine, e sul desiderio di lasciarsi attraversare ed orientare da altre voci.

NAZIONAL NETWORK PROJECTS

NETWORK ANTICORPI XL

Network Anticorpi XL is the Italian network dedicated to young authorial dance. Founded in 2007, it currently involves 41 cultural organizations across 17 regions and serves as a concrete and significant example of promoting the new generation of Italian choreographers. This network of professionals offers a wide range of initiatives aimed at meeting the needs of choreographers at different stages of their artistic growth and development— from emerging artists, who in the fragility of an evolving authorial identity seek training, exchange, mentorship, and dialogue, to established choreographers who have already distinguished themselves with a defined artistic voice and wish to experiment with more complex creative processes.

The Mosaico Danza Association, through the INTERPLAY festival, has been part of the network since 2007. To date, we participate in the following initiatives: Vetrina della Giovane Danza D’ Autore XL + CollaborAction + Prove D’ Autore + Danza Urbana XL + Nuove Traiettorie.”
