BRUNO HUMBERTOStage materials for the performance: THE HUMAN HAND (history of creation and violence)

THE HUMAN HAND - history of creation and violence is a multidisciplinary project and research on the part of the body that, since the dawn of representation, has been one of the most used symbols associated with technique, art, magic, healing, and freedom, and, at the same time, with oppression, control, and human violence. The central object will be a performance-conference, testing interaction possibilities through scenography and installation.
