Coorpi

COORPI is a cultural non – profit organization, gathering dancers,  choreographers , teachers and professionals working in the dance field  on different levels. The association was founded in November 2002 to  commend choreutic professionals by supporting their professional and creative  development, develop new interaction’ processes between artists and  local communities, engage new audiences, promote training and research  on contemporary dance and to encourage new forms of collaboration and networking, providing a  dynamic space for discussion and dialogue between its members, local  communities, regional and national institutions.

Since 2011, COORPI has focused on projects with a  strong multimedia and interactive component, combining dance, video,  social media and the development of interdisciplinary expressive formats  to improve creative and physical narrative across the body and relaunching screendance  production and dissemintaion on a national scale.

In this direction the association’s intervention  strategies voluntarily place themselves on a liminal position of  experimentation between different artistic expression and call in to  question a multiplicity of “actors” in the artistic, technical and economic field, imagining  production, training and distribution as an organic process.

All this has accredited and consolidated the  strategic positioning of the organization both at a national and  international level, as subject devoted to promoting broader and new  audiences for dance, with a major focus on youngsters (<30).
