ONARTS
OnArts centres its artistic research on a human circus in which everyone can recognise themselves in order to grasp its simplicity
Founded in Catania in 2002 by the will of two circus artists, Giulio Lanzafame and Riccardo Strano, OnARTS has worked since then in the national artistic and cultural sector. Thanks to the collaboration of a group of artists with high professional training who have been maturing skills and knowledge in a lifelong learning journey initiated at the Flic School in Turin, and subsequently integrated with higher training at the French centres CNAC – Centre National des Arts duCirque Châlons-en-Champagne, ESAC- École Superieure desArts du Cirque in Brussels and, outside Europe, at the École National duCirque de Montréal.
Riccardo from his trapeze and Giulio from his soft rope have created a world in which Turin and Catania come to be very close!
For more than 10 years it has produced several shows both as street theatre and as contemporary circus performances, participating in the most important Italian and European festivals, basing its artistic research on a human-scale circus in which everyone can recognise themselves in order to grasp its genuineness
