Presentation
Frichti Concept operates mainly in public area. The company invents choreographic proposals where the dancer is imbodied, is in the present, thus developing a constantly renewed relationship with the area and the public.
Frichti Concept explores the mixture of contemporary dance with other artistic disciplines (music, plastic arts, manipulation of objects, clown, architecture ... )
In its very first show, “Trace ta route, Ratatouille and Raille ta trouille” (2003), Frichti Concept combines dance and music. This show has been performed more than 80 times in France and abroad.
“Fricassée de museaux franco sur le piment!” (2007), the second opus of the company, uses the same blending and introduces themes like dramatic art, scenography and interacting with area and audience.
In 2010 and 2011, the company turned towards visual arts and object manipulation, then creating “Bric à Brac” and « Scène de Ménage ». These projects are in line with the first Frichti Concept shows but, in the same time, add lighter forms to the company's repertory, deepen the relationship with scenography and mark a turning point in the company's artistic work.
Since 2012, Frichti Concept has entered a new phase of creation, starting in 2008 with “Romances”. Thanks to renewed writing and numerous periods of research and creation in public area, the company now develops forms that question an area in motion. These forms question the show itself and the relationship to the present of dancers and audience, while continuing an explosive mixture of disciplines.
Two creations arised from this research: “Les Impromptus Choreographiques” (2013) and “IC # 6” (2014). These creations are used as an artistic melting pot for the company's territorial settling.
These two shows were imagined directly in public area. Their writing, made up of breaks and diversions, deals with the relationship, in public area, of the intimate to the collective and deconstructs codes in order to push back frontiers.
Today, Frichti Concept carries on with discipline crossbreeding by developing shows that question an area in motion, the performance itself, the relationship to the present of dancers as well as audience and even question the relationship to the text. The 2018 creation, “/ (slash), ou l'Homme D” fits in this artistic evolution.
Moreover, Frichti Concept regularly offers artistic activities for all age and for amateur level. These territory immersions take place in connection with local structures (animation centers, social centers, shelters, media libraries, associations ...).
