Program
Workshop

Animé par Agnès Benoit de Books on the Move

Laboratoire - lectures mouvementées

Books on the Move, invited by Contredanse and in partnership with Les Brigittines, invites you to a workshop in the Contredanse documentation centre. With words, skin and eyes, together we will imagine a place for sharing and experimenting based on books, the body, reading and writing. A sensory exploration through touch, where books will be invested, examined, weighed, browsed, read, and set in motion.

How can the dance book make us move and think?
The bookshop Books on the Move will be present at the In Movement festival at Les Brigittines:
Thursday 10 March - from 4 p.m.
Friday 11 March - from 6 p.m.
