Rooted in the scope of performing arts, dance, theatre and performance, the Gestes series appeals to the importance of gestures and body engagement to think and reinvent contemporary worlds. What do performing arts—their knowledge, their research, their methods, their use of the past, their perceptions—create as strengths for the present and its transformation within the Anthropocene era?
In accordance to the polymorphous and abundant landscape of scenic forms and practices, to the subtlety of the sensorial, somatic, situational and relational experiences carried out, Gestes intends to raise and publish hybrid and heterogeneous writing gestures: essays, reviews, research-creations, artists writings or catalogs, manifests, collections, memoirs, interviews, correspondences, scores, performance transcriptions, manuals or anti-manuals.
