Classroom 2

Javier Yániz, researcher at the Culture and Society Institute of the University of Navarra, moderates the conversation between Jesús María Usunáriz, professor of modern history at the University of Navarra, and Javier Martín, choreographer and performer, author and interpreter of Figuras del umbral, a work that can be seen at the MUN Theater on Friday, September 29.

What we call rites of passage, how their knowledge is approached from the academy and from the arts of movement, which of them are linked to the figure of the threshold and how a performative and choreographic work is built from them will be the topics addressed in this conversation.

BIOGRAPHY

Musical interpretation workshop Javier Martín is a choreographer, researcher and performer. He develops an epistemological and critical research project on the movement arts. Situated in the choreographic creation that seeks change and position taking, the artist finds his escapes in different discursive overflows through various disciplines and staging as writing, lectures-performances, work processes accompanied by laboratories and working groups, the activation and development of research groups, the accompaniment of training itineraries in various universities or the development of seminars...

He was originally an artist-in-residence at the Teatro Galán in Compostela during his first year of work (2005) while studying Chemistry at the Faculty of the University of Santiago de Compostela, specializing in the itinerary of Quantum Mechanics. Since then, he has created more than 30 pieces, including fourteen stage shows and more than twenty short pieces, special collaborations, site-specific projects or performances for unconventional spaces. He has presented his work in Spain, Portugal, France, Russia, Ukraine, Mexico, Uruguay and Guatemala.
