Biography
What to say about the Kessler Twins? DADAUMPA! DADAUMPA!
Our research field includes body, dance and pictures, and our name is inspired to the mythic duo consisting of Alice and Ellen Kessler. We love their naïve “sense of beauty”, and the fact that they let us glimpse some themes that are now so central in the contemporary art reflections: the doppelganger, the synchronic/diachronic relationship, the repetition and its breaking, the game and the nonsense.
And it is not the simple rhizomatic concatenation the reason of our love, but rather the desire to confront us with each of these themes they raised, with their deformations and every possible updates.
Now, with the same unchanged passion, the new Kessler Twins attempt an aesthetics which privileges the body and its possible representations, in order to try to see if Alice and Ellen were right when, in “La notte è piccola per noi”, they sung: the time will stop here, it will stop here, everything will remain, everything will remain so fabulous, so fabulous, only for us, only for us, for us…
Ore maybe if they leaved something for us too!
The Kessler Twins is composed by Simona Bertozzi, Marcello Briguglio and Celeste Taliani.
