Akarova - Choreography & costume design for Allegro Barbaro (1929)

The Belgian dancer Akarova realised her ideas on the kinaesthetic, in collaboration with painter (and husband) Marcel-Louis Baugniet, on the stage. Influenced by Constructivism and Suprematism, the set designs they made together for works such as Allegro Barbaro (1929) and La Danse D’Amour (1929) included rhythmic structuring and the use of bold primary colours, contrasting with black and white. Her stage works effected a total synthesis of the concerns of painting and a habitable, theatrical environment to create a “living geometry”.
