LIA CLAUDIA LATINI / dancer – choreographer – organization director of
Compagnia Bellanda
Born and trained in Friuli Venezia Giulia, she began studying academic dance
(classical, modern and contemporary). At the same time she continued her
artistic studies and graduated in fashion design. A bond
which influences her artistic vision and her aesthetic tastes. She approaches
dance without gender distinctions. This path leads her to mix, hybridize
languages, patterns, structures and search for new images.
GIOVANNI GAVA LEONARDUZZI / dancer – choreographer – artistic director of
Compagnia Bellanda Ets
His story as a dancer began with the word “B-Boy in breakdance, where he has
been active since 1996.
He was invited as a participant, national representative but also as a judge in
various national and international breakdance competitions and soon began to
look for an alternative path in this type of movement, trying to create his own
identity and creating a new language that could now be included in the
“experimental” category.
Going deeper and deeper into this research, he arrives at dance theatre, almost
losing his starting point.
Everything he creates comes from a breakdance, urban matrix, and has its
roots in an extremely physical and at the same time technical dance.
From 2012 to 2017 he worked in parallel as a breakdance dancer for Italian
authors and companies such as Enzo Celli, Michela Lucenti/Ballet Civile,
Abbondanza/Bertoni, and as a choreographer and performer of the Bellanda
artistic project.
