Faune, Faune, Faune
For the “Nymphéas” room at the Musée de l’Orangerie in Paris in 2021, Valeria Giuga has taken over several scores from the famous ballet “L’Après-Midi d’un faune”, a heritage work if ever there was one, and created ” Faune Faune Faune”.
For “Faune Faune Faune” Valeria Giuga and Noëlle Simonet worked from the original score of Nijinski’s version (1912) and that of Kurt Jooss (1966) created for two exceptional performers Pina Bauch and Jean Cébron within of the Folkwangballet in Essen. A score of “Afternoon of a faun” by Jerôme Robbins (1953) completes the corpus of works, these three versions being the only ones recorded to date. From these three scores, Valeria Giuga extracts the only figure of the faun, as Lifar did in the past, in order to create a solo that is repeated and transformed like a recurring and haunting dream for the dancer Daniel Condamines, former interpreter of Pina Bausch. Two “Fauns” are reassemblies of the original works, that of Nijinsky and that of Jooss. The third is a rewriting that mixes the sources and blurs the tracks of these three scores on a sound creation by Anne-James Chaton and Andy Moor based on the poem by Stéphane Mallarmé.
