Tremore_piccole cose del mondo (Tremore_little Things of the World) is a site-specific performance that unfolds between the Greenhouse and the Grumello Park, guiding the audience on an imaginative journey. Tremore speaks to us of water, it sways and moves around it. Through installations and choreographic scores, Tremore builds a cosmogony of creatures and landscapes, slowly tracing a constellation of figures.
Tremore is a gesture of care toward the earth and water itself — its mysterious power, its fragility, its subtle essence. It’s an act of imagination that begins with fragments and gently seeks to recompose a sense of wholeness.
The audience walks, watches, listens, and becomes an integral part of the narrative, flowing with the performance like a silent current. Tremore is a shared experience, made of gazes and presences that meet in a suspended time.
Micorrize is a collective research project founded by Marta Lucchini and Rosa Lanzaro. Marta Lucchini is a dancer, choreographer, and trainer with twenty years of experience in dance and somatic practices, having collaborated with various choreographers and artistic projects. Rosa Lanzaro is an architect specializing in scenography and performing arts, actively involved in urban redevelopment projects and community participation.
Together, they create works for the stage and natural environment and lead the annual ERRANTE artistic residency project. Lanzaro is also co-founder of the group LeCittàSottili and designed the Bosco della Memoria in Monza.
Marta Lucchini, dancer and choreographer, has spent over twenty years exploring contemporary dance and somatic practices. She combines her artistic research with sharing her experience through workshops and seminars, both in the studio and in nature. As a dancer, she has participated in numerous productions, collaborating with nationally and internationally renowned choreographers and directors such as Michele Abbondanza and Antonella Bertoni, Sharon Fridman, Simona Bucci, Teresa Ludovico, Dario Moretti, Daniele Abbado, Ilaria Drago, and Luca Scarzella. Since 2017, she has focused on her own creative work in theater and in unconventional spaces, both natural and urban. Together with Rosa Lanzaro, architect and scenographer, she founded the Collettivo Micorrize in 2022, whose research centers around the relationship between body and landscape, exploring their reciprocity and permeability through choreographic and installation-based actions. With Valentina Buldrini, she created Errante_sentieri dialoghi visioni, a project of artistic residencies, workshops, and performances held in the park of the former InCal System quarry (RN), supported by the Municipality of Rimini and Santarcangelo Festival.

It may be that we have been reached by the teaching of the gesture that, slowly spreading through the body, shapes it without ever possessing it. This stance on the threshold, which might also seem like a bounce back—a return of something only a short time before unknown—I believe can be defined, or likened, to the meaning of the poetic gesture. The Satyr, as Nietzsche tells us in The Birth of Tragedy (1872) and, in a wise echo, Giorgio Colli in The Birth of Philosophy (1975), might be the one who casts a gaze into the abyss saying yes to life: not the night, but its spring. The two dancers in the performance are infected from within, struck by contemplation turned toward the similar, adjacent, symmetrical gesture. A dance for dermatoglyphs tracing the air and a syntax that seems to refer to the embryo of the gesture meeting its like, recognizing it as different and friendly.
Once again, dance becomes a laboratory of life, facing desperate, titanic actions, standing on the threshold with a vigilant, mantic, divinatory attitude. But it is itself a science of being, a mirror of resonances and cognitive calls.
Notes by Virgilio Sieni
Virgilio Sieni is a dancer and choreographer recognized as one of the leading figures in contemporary European dance. His work has been presented internationally in major theaters, art foundations, and museums. With a background in visual arts and architecture, since the 1980s he has developed an original approach to the body and gesture, blending tradition with contemporary innovation in a deeply human and radical choreographic language. In 1992, after working with the collective Parco Butterfly, he founded the Virgilio Sieni Company. In 2003, he opened CANGO – Cantieri Goldonetta in Florence, now Italy’s National Center for Dance Production, focusing on research and the transmission of body languages.
In 2007, he founded the Academy on the Art of Gesture, a unique, intergenerational, and inclusive training program that brings together professionals, amateurs, and communities in artistic creation. From 2013 to 2016, he was the Artistic Director of the Venice Biennale Dance, where he developed a four-year plan exploring the idea of inhabiting the world between city and democracy, imagining the city through its metaphysical dimension. His choreographic language is based on transmission and tactility, emphasizing the haptic and multisensory nature of gesture and the individual. He explores themes such as resonance, gravity, and the poetic, political, scientific, and archaeological richness of the body.
Among his many awards are three UBU Prizes (2000, 2003, 2011), the Lo Straniero Prize (2011), and in 2013 he was named Chevalier of the Order of Arts and Letters by the French Ministry of Culture.
Jari Boldrini trained at the Opus Ballet training center in Florence and began working as a dancer with various companies, collaborating with the Virgilio Sieni Company, Le Supplici by Fabrizio Favale, Thor by Thierry Smith, Nelson Reguera, Cristina K. Rizzo, Letizia Renzini, Marina Giovannini, Nicola Cisternino, and Stefano Questorio. In 2014, he choreographed and performed in the opera Vesalii Icones, directed by Peter Maxwell, for the Venice Biennale Music Festival. In 2015, he presented Verso una visione caleidoscopica as part of the Stanze Segrete series at Cango Cantieri Goldonetta. In 2018, he was a finalist for the Equilibrio Prize with Ultima Estate. He choreographed Divino per meta for the festival La Democrazia del Corpo and Tiny Space Costruzione for the festival Nuovi Cantieri Culturali Isolotto. Thanks to his meeting with eight other dancers, in 2017 he co-founded Stabile di Lí, a project that fosters artistic exchanges, sharing, and the exchange of practices.
Maurizio Giunti is a dancer and choreographer associated with the Virgilio Sieni National Center for Dance Production, active in prestigious companies such as COB Compagnia Opus Ballet. He has performed choreographies by Virgilio Sieni in productions like Satiri (2023), exploring a poetics of gesture suspended between abstraction and spatial tactility. As a choreographer, he created Dittico Orientale (2025) for the La Democrazia del Corpo festival in Florence, a work inspired by Pier Paolo Pasolini’s documentaries that blends body, space, and sensory imagination. In 2017, he developed Nello for the Stanze Segrete project, aimed at young performers exploring gesture and bodily fragility. Among his research performances, We Pop (2017), created with Davide Valrosso, revealed an intense and swirling dance, capable of both seducing and destabilizing the audience. Maurizio also participates in Lezioni sul gesto, open courses dedicated to understanding minimal and primary movement as a shared practice.
