El Conde de Torrefiel

LA PLAZA

El Conde de Torrefiel is a Barcelona-based artistic duo, comprised of Tanya Beyeler (Switzerland) and Pablo Gisbert (Spain). Their performances draw connections across texts, visual arts and choreography. Their new, seventh work, the end result of a one-year research, is a co-production of major European festivals and theatres and is set to premiere in 2018. LA PLAZA examines the notion of time and space through tension, resistance and rupture, all of which are integral aspects of violence. The artists observe the physical constraints imposed by space and how our lives are restricted by various physical forces. The setting of the performance is conceived as a public agora, wherein our perception of time and space is expanded; a circular stage inhabited by people and monuments.
