Dirty hands and beauty

Dirty hands and beauty is one of the projects of the Biennale Danza 2015 in Venice by the choreographer Cesc Gelabert.

Based on a fragment of the book by Paul Auster, Winter Journal, the project was inspired by the idea of a kaleidoscope, a rapid sequence of mental images of all those things that we have touched with our hands throughout our lifetimes; probably some of the most beautiful and some of the most disgusting things that have happened to us. Beauty, hands and filth, as concepts, and the entire range that develops between them, with its ambiguities, a filthy beauty, beautiful filth.
