Bianca Casady & the C.i.A. at Internationales Sommerfestival Kampnagel - Hambourg / Germany






Bianca Casady talks about her discovery of theatre one day before the world premiere of her first musical project outside of Coco Rosie. Bianca Casady & the C.i.A. is the second musical performance at Internationales Sommerfestival Kampnagel, the international performing arts centre in Hamburg, Germany. it premiered August 6th 2015. http://www.kampnagel.de/en/festivals/

CocoRosie’s Bianca Casady premiered this solo project at Kampnagel, Hamburg. She puts on stage wonderfully spun songs - with a band, dancer and video. With her sister Sierra and common band CocoRosie Bianca Casady has created a great surreal Pop-Art-World. In addition to worldwide acclaimed albums and concerts CocoRosie have premiered the dance piece "Night Shift - A Feeble Ballet" in 2012 at Kampnagel and have since implemented two theater projects with Robert Wilson. Now - after several solo projects - Bianca Casady once more steps out of the familiar CocoRosie context to gather long time partners (The C.i.A.) for a musical-performance project. Together with dancer Bino Sauitzvy, video artist Jean Marc Ruellan and musicians Lacy Lancaster, Takuya Nakamura and Doug Wieselman she brings new songs to the stage, to be released in autumn also as an album. Casady designs a mysterious and suggestive parallel world starting from an untuned piano, a dusty typewriter and stacks of poems. Her songs are performative gems from a strange music Wonderland, which can now be experienced in a concert performance. After the world premiere at the Summer Festival this show will head to David Byrne's Melt Down Festival and the Pop-Kultur Festival in Berlin’s Berghain among others.

Bianca Casady - "The dead season - La morte saison"

BIANCA CASADY - "The dead season - La morte saison"
Archa theatre - Prague
19.06.15 (20:00)

In a special solo project Bianca Casady (CocoRosie) will present her talents both as a musician and filmmaker. She will play and sing songs and music to her film currently in production "The dead Saison - La morte saison" (featuring Biño Sauitzvy, Rebecca Wright and Jean Marc Ruellan).

Bianca Casady (Coco) is an American-born musician and visual artist.  She and her sister Sierra (Rosie) Casady created twelve years ago the musical band CocoRosie. The sisters were born and raised in the United States, but formed the band in Paris after meeting for the first time after years of separation. Since then for their common as well as individual work they use the CocoRosie brand.

In Archa Theatre Bianca will introduce herself not only as a musician but also as a filmmaker. She will perform a live score to her new film, which still in process. In the film she follows the journeys of a set of outsider characters, The Lonely Clown, The Handless Maiden, The Wino Vagabond. “They are all in search of home. They seem to be already dead, walking in a vague dream. Homeward ghosts of no tomorrow”, says Bianca. The Prague performance will be developed from the project presented in Centre Pompidou in Paris last November.

On the stage of the Archa Theatre Bianca will be accompanied by Jean-Marc Ruellan on piano, Doug Wieselman on saxophone, clarinet, bass clarinet and electric guitar (Doug Wieselman is member of the Antony and the Johnsons, and is known by working with artists like John Lurie and the Lounge Lizards, Lou Reed, Joan-As-Policewoman, Laurie Anderson and others), Biño Sauitzvy, dancer, Laerke Grontved and Anders Firing Aardal. 

Bianca will come to Prague from Moscow right after the premiere of their collaboration of CocoRosie with Robert Wilson. They created music for the Wilson’s production of Pushkin Fairy Tales at the Theater of Nations. After the Peter Pan (staged in Berlin and Paris) it is the second piece CocoRosie created with the visionary of theatre avant-garde.

Robert Wilson said about CocoRosie: „Our collaboration was very different than working with, say, David Byrne, Philip Glass or Tom Waits, because CocoRosie are visual artists, too—even if the final execution is sonic. They thought quite a bit about make-up and what the characters look like while trying to figure out how the songs and noise elements should work.“

Bianca is also part of the "Future Feminists," a group comprised of herself, her sister Sierra, Antony Hegarty, Kembra Pfahler, and Johanna Constantine. These performance-based artists presented their work on an exhibit unveiled in New York this winter.

On June 18, Bianca Casady will be special guest of Prague Quadrennial. The conversation with her will be moderated by Ondřej Hrab.

CocoRosie – The Dead Season is presented by Archa Theatre in collaboration with PQ 2015.

Les Salons de Frasq sont conçus comme un moment privilégié d'échanges et  de débats autour des pratiques de la performance.

Ouverts au public, les Salons se déclinent et s'organisent à chaque fois de façon joyeuse, informelle et improvisée. Pendant cette soirée, on pourra assister à la présentation de la seconde édition de la revue Celebrity Café par leurs éditeurs Jacques Donguy, Sarah Cassenti et Jean-François Bory, à la projection "Hors Champs" une vidéo de la performance Les Idiotes de Sarah Cassenti et Hélène Defilippi.

D'autres actions surprises devraient ponctuer ces Salons de Frasq puisqu'il s'agit du premier rendez-vous public d'un programme de recherche mené par François Durif, Biño Sauitzvy, David Liver et Anne Dreyfus. il vont questionner le mot "performance" afin d'aboutir au printemps 2016 à la formulation d'un nouveau lexique sur ce champs de l'art. Un projet qui a reçu le soutien d'Arcadi au titre du FSIR en 2015.

Mother Hunting (Miracle of a Rose)




Norwegian Theatre Academy at Østfold University College presents:

MOTHER HUNTING (MIRACLE OF A ROSE)

Written and directed by Bianca Casady (CocoRosie). Co-created with the 3rd year acting students and the 3rd year scenography students at NTA

"Ain't nothing but whores, cops, clowns, widows, orphans and maids.

An orphan is sold by her mother to become a servant to a mean rich woman with an obsession for plastic surgery. The maids perform nightly surgeries on the vain boss. A revengeful plot against the rich woman leads to the orphan's escape and ultimately initiates her descent to a criminal life on the streets. In a parallel world a little girl receives magic red shoes and runs away from her deranged father becoming a clown and a prostitute. Eventually realizing her likeness to her father, she embraces her own lunacy. "He may have turned me away from magic, but not away from madness." The characters sing and dance their way through different realms, time traveling into fading memories. It's hard to tell from who's dream this world emerges, who is the dreamer and who is being dreamt."

Ma biche


ma biche from Lika Guillemot on Vimeo.

Terme affectueux, synonyme de chérie, la biche est aussi un mammifère chassé et mangé par certains hommes.
Ma biche est une métaphore de la société du cannibalisme.
L'homme qui mange la femme, l'homme qui mange l'autre, sous forme d'ethnie, de communauté, d'organisation, de comportement, de pensée, au nom de la religion, d'un Dieu, d'un pouvoir, de l'argent, d'une excuse... Manger le corps de l'autre, son territoire, l'anéantir, le faire disparaître, pour que je puisse exister.
La société anthropophage. 

Réalisation dans la cadre du workshop Freak Show, Hall noir de Bandits Mages, à Bourges, 2014.

Vision de nuit


Vision de nuit 
Série de photographies  30×40 de Yoann Lelong
« Quand on est aveugle, ce n’est pas du blanc dont on est privé, c’est du noir. Seul celui qui voit peut voir le noir. Celui qui ne voit pas est confisqué d’une seule couleur : le noir qui est l’absence de couleurs et aussi l’endroit où toutes les couleurs se résorbent et donc s’annulent. Il est donc confisqué de ce point d’annulation et voir, c’est pouvoir faire le noir. Nous, pour voir, il faut qu’il y ait du noir. » Bernard Salignon, Sociologue
A l’opposé du jour où l’on distingue et différencie les éléments qui nous entourent, la nuit annule les distances et efface les formes. La nuit englobe l’ensemble des éléments en une totalité indéfinissable et indélimitable. Le jour fragmente et la nuit unit. Le jour rassure car il permet de nous regrouper et nous comparer les uns avec les autres. Elle nous permet de segmenter la société selon les valeurs des plus nombreux.
