For its 8th edition, FARSe seeks to bring people together. Spectators to spectators, public to artists, artists to artists. From Saturday August 13 to Monday August 15, 130 artists offer performances in the streets of Strasbourg.
“Getting closer is the desire to share collective emotions and above all to have a very beautiful cry of humanity shared between the poetic gestures of artists and you, you, me at the corner of the street, between inhabitants”she explains to a few countries of one of the first performances of the festival, “We”, from the company Khta, place du Temple-Neuf.
From monumental installations, to intimate scenes, the artistic director of the event, Lucile Rimbert wanted to decline this common thread of the festival.
“There is the desire to come together, with proposals where your space and that of the artists will be mixed”, she delivers in front of the micro-tiers installed by Khta. A few tens of meters further on, the aerialists of Gratte-Ciel are preparing to defy gravity several tens of meters above the ground of Place Kléber.
The programming orchestrated by Lucile Rimbert and the Strasbourg events center must also include collective stories, beyond borders and generations. This is the role of the FARSe des Minis, Heiritz park, where young and old can meet and discover together.
