Opéra national de Paris

from 03 July to 15 July

An affirmation of the close-knit relationship between painting, music and dance, the origins of Signes lie in artist Olivier Debré’s desire to translate into a series of paintings the feeling elicited in him by a smile. Inspired by these flamboyant paintings, Carolyn Carlson sets her dancers in motion to an original score by Réné Aubry.
