About the CREATION
From Plato's story to nowadays, a continuous tension in search of the total, uniq complete body. From the "hermaphrodites" narrated in Aristophanes' speech, supernatural figures, in strength and shape, to the divided body that we have. The attempt at reunion, the tension towards completeness, the relationship never completely "satisfied" because it is now impossible to go back to being a "single body". A perennial desire for reunion, a desire that animates and moves the bodies. Two bodies, added together, create a bigger one. From the specific story of Plato to an analysis of current society and dynamics of the relationships in it: the difficulty of finding, maintaining and cultivating a couple relationship in a society that pushes towards an ever stronger individualism and that leads to a lower acceptance of the couple's "compromise".
Bellanda was born in 2012 from the will of Giovanni Leonarduzzi, aka Gava, to seek a personal evolution of breakdance.
It develops through a profound search for movement and language that pushes from urban roots towards a choreutic writing of contemporary dance.
In 2017 Giovanni Leonarduzzi and Claudia Latini decide to continue together in the search for a language that discovers a meeting point between the breakdance technique and the contemporary technique until they enter the search for partnering, which they call "FloorFlirting".
The Bellanda project thus finds a concrete development in the birth of Compagnia Bellanda Associazione Ets.
