François Gremaud and Victor Lenoble share a serious taste for the absurd and the quirky. When they are commissioned by the Haute école des arts de la scène to lead a common research project on the theme of «partition» – one in Lausanne, one in Bourgogne –, the fruit of their exchanges goes astray from the very beginning. Between poetry, rigour, conifers and whistle blasts, their performative lecture puts into perspective the sprawling territories of artistic creation and the stakes of a collaborative practice.
