Maps and Paths: bodily practices and transculturality

Abstract

Grotowski’s interest in practices from different cultures had special importance during his transition from the Paratheatre phase (1969-1978) to the so-called Theatre of Sources (1976-1982). This article deals with the way this occurred and how was conceived this experience in its transcultural dimension based on bodily practices present in different cultures and which are transmitted as embodied knowledge.
