This article describes the creation process of Arquitectura del Aire (Aerial Architecture) devised by La Mancha Theatre Company, Chile, a company I co-founded. The point of departure was the ‘Painting’ exercise initiated at the Jacques Lecoq International Theatre School in Paris and continued in La Mancha Escuela Internacional del Gesto y la Imagen (La Mancha International School of Image and Gesture). The aim of this project was to explore the exercise’s potential for developing a theatre production, inspired by the work of French artist Yves Klein (1928–1962). What was unanticipated, was the intimacy and intricacy with which Klein’s fascination and expertise in judo infused the work. A devoted practitioner of judo, Klein became a fourth dan judoka in the early 1950s, a level that no other French person had achieved at that time. Training with a judo sensei (teacher) for this project, the actor-devisors, including me, experienced a rigorous system of preparation: ukemi (falling safely), kuzushi (breaking the opponent’s balance), throws, counter-throws, grappling techniques, falls, and recovery. Judo’s principles of giving way, maximum efficiency and mutual respect became the essential cornerstones of our approach. In this production, judo shaped both the process and outcome, in effect as co-creator, prompting the question: what performer training practices might engender an imagining disposition for attending to the creative possibilities, movements and dynamics of martial arts as a material devising practice?

柔道作为一种设计实践:伊夫克莱因、拉曼查和智利

本文介绍了由我共同创立的智利拉曼恰剧院公司设计的Arquitectura del Aire (空中建筑)的创作过程。出发点是在巴黎雅克勒科克国际戏剧学校发起的“绘画”练习,并在 La Mancha Escuela Internacional del Gesto y la Imagen(拉曼恰国际形象和手势学校)继续进行。该项目的目的是探索该练习在开发戏剧作品方面的潜力,其灵感来自法国艺术家 Yves Klein (1928-1962) 的作品。出乎意料的是,克莱因对柔道的迷恋和专长注入了这项工作的亲密和错综复杂。一位虔诚的柔道练习者,克莱恩成为了第四段柔道 在 1950 年代初期,当时没有其他法国人达到这一水平。与柔道老师(老师)一起为这个项目进行培训,包括我在内的演员们经历了严格的准备系统:ukemi(安全坠落),kuzushi(打破对手的平衡)、投掷、反投掷、擒抱技术、跌倒和恢复。柔道让位、最大效率和相互尊重的原则成为我们方法的重要基石。在这部作品中,柔道塑造了过程和结果,实际上作为共同创造者,提出了一个问题:什么样的表演训练实践可能会产生一种想象的倾向,将武术的创造性可能性、动作和动力作为一种材料设计实践?
