This text is taken from an interview with Pascale Weber conducted on 13 June 2009 at Le Fresnoy - Studio national des arts contemporains, as part of the Latitudes Contemporaines festival (Lille)1. Born in 1965, Christian Rizzo trained in the plastic arts at the Villa Arson in Nice before turning to dance. In the 1990s, he worked as a performer with many contemporary choreographers, sometimes also creating soundtracks or costumes (Mathilde Monnier, Hervé Robbe, Mark Tompkins, Georges Appaix, Vera Mantero, Catherine Contour, Emmanuelle Huynh and Rachid Ouramdane).
