Description
The video performance had been presented in Salerno, Italy, during the ARTMEDIA Congress (1992). The space of Paula Verengia's Gallery had been drawned with slides and video projections on the back of the room. An Italian Dancing Company named Compagnia Delle Acque developed a coreography into the images environment contrasting the bodies and the light from the images of the tape "Fire" inside a large projection and fixed images. The coreagrophy was stimulated by the sounds generated by the dansers provoking a strong connection of the bodies and the ephemeral images. René Berger had commented: "Something so important is hapenning here: this is contemporary art".
