Lisa Nelson
( Lisa Nelson, Steve Paxton, Scott Smith, Peter Hulton, Philip Jeck, Pep Ramis, María Muñoz )
The Tuning project is a meeting place between scenic artists (Lisa Nelson, Scott Smith, Philip Jeck, Steve Paxton, Peter Hulton, Pep Ramis and María Muñoz) to investigate the basic premise of dance on stage through the tools the Tuning Scores that Lisa Nelson has developed in the last 20 years.With key players including Nelson and Scott Smith, the scores are a communication framework for ensemble collaboration.
Where does the dance image come from-dancer, choreographer or viewer? Is there a unified experience of a dance event we-performer and spectator-can agree upon? As performers, what is the relationship between our spectator-selves, our composer-selves and our performing-selves?
Fueling this research is the perception of the body as both proscenium and performer, as container and generator of imagery, as thought as well as feeling.
The work is documented through video and writing generated by the artists and observers to the process. Since the '90s, Tuning projects have taken place in many countries across Europe, North and South America, Australia, Israel. Each project is site specific, bringing together artists from different cultures/languages and from a variety of performative disciplines.
The participants are dance artist Lisa Nelson (US), dancer/musician Scott Smith (UK/US), theater director/archivist Peter Hulton (UK), dance artist Steve Paxton (US), musician/composer Philip Jeck (UK), the choreographer/visual artist Pep Ramis (Catalunya) and the choreographer and dancer María Muñoz (Catalunya).
