from January 7 to 23, 2025
La Commune, National Drama Center (CDN) of Aubervilliers, invites the Nathalie Béasse company—associate artist for the 2024–2027 period—to take over the theatre for a major event entitled “Pavillon”: "To inherit a theatre in January and open it in June. So, quickly move towards joy, toward desire. Go straight to the heart of encounters, of longing. No programs, no strategies—move forward through the joy of others. Form a team, give rise to projects we ourselves hadn’t foreseen. [...]
That is why, starting this season, an international festival and five artists—a playwright, a director, a choreographer—will take turns transforming La Commune by installing their own 'Pavilions,' bringing together new works, repertory pieces, emerging artists they will endorse, installations, exhibitions... Each time creating a universe of their own." Frédéric Bélier-Garcia, Director of La Commune, CDN Aubervilliers
This pavillon was structured around three components:
- the presentation of two productions: velvet and le bruit des arbres qui tombent
- a workshop with professionals, which led to public showings of a short piece created on-site
- the company also invited other artists:
saturday, january 11:
four young artists connected to la cabine presented short-form pieces
saturday, january 11 and sunday, january 12:
denis and louise mariotte presented their choreographic and visual performance et caetera
From November 11 to 15, 2024
the TU-Nantes invites Nathalie Béasse to compose a sensory journey through her artistic universe. This invitation is a nod to the TU's inauguration in November 1994: exactly 30 years later, the TU extends an invitation to the artist to whom it has remained loyal for nearly three decades. Over these few days, she presents her latest work velvet, hosts a lecture by Pierre Lesquelen shedding light on the humility of creation, invites young artists from la cabine — a platform dedicated to emerging artistic practices in Angers — along with a round table, and has a few surprises in store.
