For choreographer André Gingras, the creation of dance cannot be seen apart from the times in which we live and the dilemmas that concern us. In his new work The Autopsy Project, Gingras examines the concept of autopsy in today’s society. In this performance, that itself has the structure of an autopsy, Gingras shows how seductive pure knowledge and technology can be: for the experts for the sake of scientific progress, for society to believe in blindly as the solution to all our problems.
"The Autopsy Project is as much an overwhelming spectacle as a subtle performance concerning the human condition. ... another masterpiece in the oeuvre of André Gingras."
