This Must be the Space is the Festival’s project dedicated to supporting emerging artists under 35. The selected works are chosen through an open call, offering an ever-growing number of young choreographers the opportunity to present their work.

This year, the project has been enriched thanks to a collaboration with the MILANoLTRE festival. Two juries were involved in the selection process: one made up of eight students from the licei coreutici in Bergamo and Milan, and the other composed of eight regular audience members from both festivals.

The evaluation sessions were conducted under the guidance of the artistic directors of FDE and MILANoLTRE.

The two creations selected through the open call are

– That’s All by Davide Tagliavini

– SEX.exe by Pablo Ezequiel Rizzo

In addition to these, Columba domestica by Margherita Celestino will also be presented. The work was developed within the project Incubatore di futuri coreograf* (Incubator for Future Choreographers) by C.I.M.D. (International Center for Movement and Dance), and was chosen by the artistic directors of FDE, MILANoLTRE, and Più che Danza to be supported and presented across all three festivals.
