Aina Alegre - CCN de Grenoble & STUDIO FICTIF FUGACES

Aina Alegre s’attaque à une figure légendaire du flamenco, mais loin d’en livrer un portrait figé, elle en capte l’énergie, l’insoumission, la fougue.Olivier Frégaville-Gratian d'Amore, COUPS D’ŒIL

Profondément ancrée dans la culture flamenco, avec pourtant une écriture pleine de perspectives, Aina Alegre a construit une chorégraphie haletante, pénétrante, déferlante, dans un flot oscillant entre le sauvage et la maîtrise. Des images et une énergie qui nous laissent une forte impression. Nathalie Yokiel, La Terrasse

As a choreographer and dancer, Aina Alegre has been creating shows and performances in a wide variety of formats since 2010.
She sees choreographic creation as a way of opening up imaginary worlds around the body. Through dance she explores different relationships to the collective body, and her choreographic work is conceived as an ‘orchestration’ of movement, sound, light and space. For several years, her writing is as much choreographic as it is musical. Through her creations, Aina Algre also conducts research into the notions of memory and archive that run through all her work.

After multidisciplinary training in dance, theater and music in Barcelona, Aina Alegre joined the CNDC in Angers in 2007. She articulates choreographic objects constructed from different media: pieces for the stage and performances in hybrid spaces.
In 2014, she founded the STUDIO FICTIF company in Paris to accompany her projects and creations. Since then, her work has been presented in countries including Spain, France, Italy, Belgium, Greece, Switzerland, Germany, Peru and Romania.
In 2011, she created the performance LA MAJA DESNUDA DICE, which led to the creation of the piece NO SE TRATA DE UN DESNUDO MITOLÓGICO (2012). She subsequently created DELICES (2015), LE JOUR DE LA BÊTE (2017) and LA NUIT NOS AUTRES (2019). In 2020, she will create CONCRERTO in collaboration with David Wampach, and the solo R-A-U-X-A. In 2021, she creates ÉTUDE 4, FANDANGO ET AUTRES CADENCES, at the Avignon Festival as part of the “Vive le sujet!” program co-produced with SACD. In 2022, she creates her first major group piece THIS IS NOT (AN ACT OF LOVE & RESISTANCE). In 2023, she creates SWING-MOTOR for the Jeune Ballet du CNSMD of Lyon.
The same year, she opened the Marseille Festival with PARADES & DÉSOBÉISSANCES, a piece for over 100 amateurs, which was revived in 2024 at the Palais des Sports in Grenoble. Since May 2024, she has been performing BLAU in museum contexts, a solo originally created for the Miró exhibition at the Musée de Grenoble. In March 2025, she created FUGACES at MC2: Grenoble, a piece for seven dancers. In July 2025, she presented a new version of PARADES & DÉSOBÉISSANCES, in collaboration with Bonlieu Scène nationale Annecy, performed as the opening of Annecy Paysages and during the Parade of the Biennale de Lyon.
Alongside her stage projects, since 2018 she has been setting up the research and performance project STUDIES, with which she encounters people and territories and collects stories and dances around practices and dances linked to the gestural of hammering and striking. She works with memory and archives, and uses the spoken word as a choreographic driving force. In autumn 2024, she presented REVERBERATIONS -STUDY 8 at the Festival Les Inaccoutumées at La Ménagerie de Verre – Paris.
Since 2023, Aina Alegre is co-director of the Centre chorégraphique national de Grenoble with the dancer Yannick Hugron.
