  Ethnographie de la performance « art-sport » vers Paris 2024

  La journée d’étude et la publication de ses actes croisent logiques d’artistes (performing arts) et de scientifiques en arts du spectacle vivant et/ou études sportives. Elle initie une ethnographie de la performance « art-sport » dans le contexte de l’olympiade culturelle (2020-2024), vers les Jeux olympiques de Paris (2024). Ses travaux documentent sur les pratiques performatives urbaines et spectaculaires se développant à la fois dans la rue et en ligne (jonglage, dondurma, sign spinning, freestyle ball, breakdance, street workout…) en articulation avec les politiques publiques territoriales et ses acteurs associatifs locaux.
