Full details

Synopsis Joana Levi CANCER IN SATURN ACCESSIBILITY 6 NOV English subtitles 7 NOV Portuguese Sign Language interpretation and Audio description SPECTATOR CLUB 7 NOV Moderated by José Maria Vieira Mendes and Maria Sequeira Mendes BOOK LAUNCH 4 DEC 6:30 PM Manuela Porto Room Cancer in Saturn, Joana Levi's new creative project, closes a trilogy of performances that question the colonial relations of so-called Western society with the (non-human) world around it: animals, plants, the earth, microorganisms and planets. Since 2020, Levi has been developing an essayistic language that articulates, with sharp humour, philosophical meditation, fabulation, scientific theories and autobiographical elements. After Rasante (2000) and Primárias e Exóticas (2024), in Cancer in Saturn, Levi turns to the relations of the human with the micro and macroscopic worlds. The last creation in this series is inspired by the theories of biologist Lynn Margulis, transposing her concept of symbiosis from biology to dramaturgical creation. It is in this sense that research on the cellular universe and the observation of her own body – subject to hormone therapy to fight a breast tumour – will be in symbiotic conversation with astrological and astronomical readings. Joana Levi is a creator, performer and playwright based in Lisbon since 2017. She devotes herself to experimental and collaborative projects that forge a scene crossed by different languages (from performance to theatre, from dance to philosophical thought) and that evoke relations of tension expressed in urban, (post)colonial and gender contexts and conflicts. Recently, she created the solo performance Primárias e Exóticas at the Temps d’Images Festival. She is a member artist of PENHASCO Arte Cooperativa and APNEIA COLECTIVA.

Sinopse Joana Levi CÂNCER EM SATURNO ACESSIBILIDADE 6 NOV Legendas em inglês 7 NOV Interpretação em Língua Gestual Portuguesa e Audiodescrição CLUBE ESPECTADOR 7 NOV Com moderação de José Maria Vieira Mendes e Maria Sequeira Mendes LANÇAMENTO DE LIVRO 4 DEZ 18h30 Sala Manuela Porto Câncer em Saturno , novo projeto de criação de Joana Levi, encerra uma trilogia de performances que coloca em questão as relações coloniais da dita sociedade ocidental com o mundo (não humano) em seu redor: os bichos, as plantas, a terra, os microrganismos e os planetas. Desde 2020, Levi desenvolve uma linguagem ensaística que articula, com humor afiado, meditação filosófica, fabulação, teorias científicas e elementos autobiográficos. Depois de Rasante (2000) e Primárias e Exóticas (2024), em Câncer em Saturno , Levi volta-se para as relações do humano com os mundos micro e macroscópico. A última criação desta série inspira-se nas teorias da bióloga Lynn Margulis, transpondo o seu conceito de simbiose da biologia para a criação dramatúrgica. É neste sentido que a pesquisa sobre o universo celular e a observação do seu próprio corpo - sujeito à terapia hormonal para combater um tumor na mama - estarão em conversa simbiótica com leituras astrológicas e astronómicas. Joana Levi é criadora, performer e dramaturga, radicada em Lisboa desde 2017. Dedica-se a projetos experimentais e colaborativos que forjam uma cena atravessada por diferentes linguagens (da performance ao teatro, da dança ao pensamento filosófico) e que evocam relações de tensão expressas em contextos e conflitos urbanos, (pós)coloniais e de género. Recentemente, criou a performance solo Primárias e Exóticas no Festival Temps d’Images. É artista integrante da PENHASCO Arte Cooperativa e da APNEIA COLECTIVA.
