x O PREDSTAVI

Enciklopedija reč/je umetnički projekat koji istražuje izgovorenu reč u svim njenim formama. Od 2007. godine, grupa muzičara, pesnika, reditelja, vizuelnih umetnika, glumaca, sodolingvista i kustosa sakuplja različite vrste zapisa reči i zavodi ih na internet-sajtu prema njihovim karakteristikama kakve su, na primer, kadentnost, horalnost, naglašenost, saturacija ili melodičnost. Putem ove koiekcije, Enciklopedija reči stvara kompozicije, performanse i predstave, predavanja, igre i izložbe. Enciklopedija reči je 2013, godine inicirala ciklus od četiri „horske svite" zasnovane na jednom principu: živoj reprodukciji dokumenata iz audio koiekcije. Svita br. 2 je, razume se, jedan od četiri deia ciklusa.

x IZVODIIZ KRITIKA

„Žoris Lakost je veliki dečak za koga nikad ne biste rekli da ima četrdeset dve godine, a kome je jednog dana na pamet pala genijalna ideju koju säm tumači rečima: ‘Pišem pomoću nađenih predmeta.’ Nađeni predmeti su, u ovom slučaju, hiljade, milioni, milijarde reči koje putuju našim svetom i kroz nas, koje neprestano bruje, mešaju se, preklapaju, suprotstavljaju, reči mržnje i ljubavi, rata i mira, osvajanja i stvaranja intimnih teritorija... Originalno, uzbudljivo, dirljivo... Ipak, od te polifonije sveta je tek trebalo stvoriti 'pravu' predstavu, a upravo se tu pokazalo umeče Žorisa Lakosta, koji se, unutar svoje lične forme, suptilno igra s kodovima teatralnosti. U Sviti br. 2 ima drame, tragedije i komedije koje doiaze iz našeg sveta, sa svim svojim katastrofama, konfliktima, apsurdima, bitkama i spasonosnim ishodima." Fabienne Darge, Le Monde

„Vrtoglavica mnogostrukosti u jedinstvu. Nastala u Briselu, predstava je već obišla Koreju, SAD, i tek se vratila iz Holandije. Na sceni ima pet osoba koje stoje za govornicom ili bez nje. igra tela (ruku, trupa) je izražena, rad na rekonstituisanju-pokretanju govora je izrazito muzikalan uz jednu vrstu stalne tenzije. Najčešće se radi o aktivnim rečima. 0 osvajanju nekog naroda, nekog srca, übedivanju, pridobijanju, uveravanju, pokoravanju.“ Jean-Pierre Thibaudat, Mediapart

x FROM THE REVIEWS

"Joris Lacoste is a big boy and you would never say that he is 42 years old. One day, he came up with an ingenious idea that he describes like this: 'I write with found objects.’ Found objects are, in this case, thousands, millions, billions of words travelling through our world and through us, constantly humming, mixing, overlapping, opposing, words of hate and love, war and peace, conquest and creation of intimate territories... Original, exciting, touching... Still, a „real performance" was yet to be made out of this world polyphony and that is exactly where Joris Lacost showed his full skill, playing with the codes of theatricality within his personal form. Suite N 0.2 contains tragedy and comedy of our world, with all its catastrophes, conflicts, absurdities, battles and salvations,” Fabienne Darge, Le Monde

"Vertigo of multiplicity united. Produced in Brussels, the show has already been to Korea, USA and the Netherlands. There are five persons standing on stage behind the pulpit or without it. Play of bodies (hands, torsos) is expressive, the work on re-constitution/ starting the speech is extremely musical, with a kind of a constant tension. Most of the time, it is about active words. It is about the conquest of a people, of the heart, of persuasion, coaxing, reassurance, subjugation.” Jean-Pierre Thibaudat, Mediapart

"By mentioning current events, by mentioning the intimate, by putting the epic and the trivial on the same level, Joris Lacoste makes a production which speaks both to the semioticians and teenagers, based on both solid theoretical knowledge and an overall collection of Internet stupidities. In short, it is a 'sonic portrait of our time', starting with how it functions and ending with its omnipresent discourses.” Clementine Gallot, Liberation
