This is the second edition of the LocoMotion contemporary dance festival that, this year as well, aims to present an overview of the current discourses and practices in the field of contemporary dance, here and throughout the world.

These signs are numerous, and develop every day through diverse research of the body, its communication with various subjects, the existence in certain contexts, relations to given media and actions, and placement in different situations. more...
