Rocco Mangieri
From the concept of performing arts and the works done by actors and dancers we will try to explore some new dimensions of the language of movement, distance and gesture in spaces of collective action. The system and codes of visual and graphicalnotation of modernity have not vanished , but these instruments are combined with new methods of analysis and creation inkinesics and proxemics. The Afro-Caribbean and Latin American local cultures are syncretic and open to the incorporation ofvarious body languages. In this kind of context semiotics of performance must engage the complexity and mix of permanentsigns and codes that are transformed into new creative forms.
