伯特与纳西

伯特兰·莱斯卡与纳西·沃塔斯是当代双人表演组合，2015 年相遇后，在国家与国际紧缩政策背景下创作了系列剧场作品。他们的作品以极简形式承载复杂思想与情感，游走于行为艺术、舞蹈与戏剧的边界。每场演出都通过解构现场表演范式，重构与观众的相遇体验，始终追求与观者建立真诚而亲密的联结。他们的表演散发着某种陌生旧友般的怀旧气息，作品曾登陆加拿大 PuSh 艺术节、西班牙秋季艺术节、萨拉热窝 MESS 戏剧节、澳大利亚阿德莱德国际艺术节、意大利 InTeatro 戏剧节、法国阿维尼翁戏剧节及巴西MiTsp戏剧节等国际舞台。2020年，二人荣获纪念休·查德本的“强制娱乐奖”，该奖项旨在表彰以创新方式为当代观众重塑剧场与表演艺术的实践者。

Bert and Nasi

Bertrand Lesca and Nasi Voutas are a contemporary performance duo that met in 2015 and have since created an entire repertoire of shows in the midst of a period of national and international austerity. Their work, in turn, is stripped back and minimalist though it deals with complex ideas and emotions, lying somewhere between performance, dance and theatre. In each of their shows, they celebrate the encounter with the audience deconstructing the model of live performance. They always seek to create a sincere and intimate connection with the spectators. Their shows have a nostalgic feel of an old friendship that you didn’t know existed. Together they have performed their shows on the international stages of PuSh Festival (Canada), Festival de Otoño (Spain), Sarajevo Mess (Bosnia), Adelaide International Festival (Australia), InTeatro (Italy), Avignon Festival (France) as well as MiTsp (Brazil). In 2020, Bert and Nasi received the Forced Entertainment Award in memory of Huw Chadbourn, which celebrates the work of contemporary artists reinventing theatre and performance in new ways and for new audiences.
