Cecile Proust - CE QUE L'ÂGE APPORTE À LA DANSE
Réalisation de dix‑sept entretiens filmés avec Jacques Hœpffner, motivés par cette observation « Sur nos scènes, la plupart des artistes de danse disparaissent quand l’âge avance ». Soit treize artistes qui ont résisté à cet effacement et dansent après soixante-dix ans différents styles de danse (Germaine Acogny, Malou Airaudo, Odile Azagury, Dominique Boivin, Susan Buirge, Dominique Dupuy, Françoise Dupuy, Jean Guizerix, Malavika, Jean Rochereau, La Tati, Elisabeth Schwartz, Elsa Wolliaston) et quatre personnes problématisant la notion d’âgisme en danse (Roland Huesca, philosophe, Isabelle Launay, chercheuse en danse, Thierry Thieû Niang, chorégraphe, Emmanuel Flamand‑Roze, neurologue). Le projet est articulé à une analyse des dispositifs artistiques, politiques et sociaux mis en place pour continuer à œuvrer en danse, élaborée en collaboration avec une anthropologue (Anne Décoret‑Ahiha), une historienne (Pauline Boivineau), une philosophe de l’art (Barbara Formis), une chercheuse en danse (Isabelle Ginot) et une sociologue (Juliette Rennes).
Chorégraphe, danseuse et chercheuse, Cécile Proust est diplômée de l’école des Arts politiques créée par Bruno Latour à SciencesPo Paris. Ses chorégraphies documentaires qui associent danse, chant, vidéo, entretiens et textes, s’inscrivent dans son projet femmeuses. Elles interrogent la fabrique des corps, des danses, des genres, des âges, des images et des regards. Reliées à des questions anthropologiques et géopolitiques, elles croisent de multiples champs théoriques et tissent des liens spécifiques avec les gender studies, les féminismes, les arts plastiques et l’espace public. Auparavant, Cécile Proust collabore à l’émergence de la nouvelle danse française des années 1980 et 1990, en travaillant auprès des chorégraphes Josette Baïz, Claude Brumachon, Dominique Brun, Jean‑Pierre Perreault puis Alain Buffard, Odile Duboc, le quatuor Albrecht Knust, Thierry Thieû Niang et les metteurs en scène Robert Wilson et Robert Carsen. Questionnant la validation des savoirs et afin d’ouvrir sa somathèque, elle pratique le kathak à Delhi (bourse Romain Rolland), le jiuta‑mai à Kyoto (Villa Kujoyama), les danses raqs sharqi et baladi au Caire et le flamenco à Madrid.
