BIOGRAPHY<\/strong><\/p>\n

California-born Carolyn Carlson defines herself first and foremost as a nomad. From San Francisco Bay to the University of Utah, from the Alwin Nikolais company in New York to Anne B\u00e9ranger\u2019s in France, from Paris Opera Ballet to Teatrodanza La Fenice in Venice, from the Th\u00e9\u00e2tre de la Ville de Paris to Helsinki, from Ballet Cullberg to La Cartoucherie in Paris, from the Venice Biennale to Roubaix, Carlson is a tireless traveller, always seeking to develop and share her poetic universe.
\n\"carolyn
\nShe arrived in France in 1971 the beneficiary of Alwin Nikolais\u2019s ideas about movement, composition and teaching. The following year, with Rituel pour un r\u00eave mort<\/em>, she wrote a poetic manifesto that defined an approach to her work that she has adhered to ever since: dance that is strongly oriented towards philosophy and spirituality. Carlson prefers the term \u2018visual poetry\u2019 to \u2018choreography\u2019 to describe her work. She creates works that express her poetic thoughts and a form of complete art within which movement occupies a special place.<\/p>\n

For four decades, Carlson has had significant influence and success in many European countries. She played a key role in the birth of French and Italian contemporary dance through the GRTOP (theatre research group) at Paris Opera Ballet and Teatrodanza at La Fenice.

\nShe has created over 100 pieces, a large number of which are landmarks in the history of dance, including Density 21.5<\/em>, The Year of the Horse<\/em>, Blue Lady<\/em>, Steppe<\/em>, Maa<\/em>, Signes<\/em>, Writings on Water<\/em> and Inanna<\/em>. In 2006, her work was rewarded with the first ever Golden Lion given to a choreographer by the Venice Biennale.<\/p>\n

Director of the National Choreographic Centre Roubaix Nord-Pas de Calais from 2005 until 2013, Carolyn Carlson is now in residency at the National Theater of Chaillot<\/a> for two seasons with the Carolyn Carlson Company<\/a>, which produces and tours her shows all over the world.<\/p>\n
