Students create choreographies as true ‘captions in motion’: not words, but bodies that become shapes, rhythms and tensions of the artworks.

Now in its fifth edition, the project Captions in the Collection was conceived to make the artistic heritage accessible in new languages. The involvement of the Dance School at the Convitto Nazionale di Roma led to the idea of “non-verbal” captions for the exhibition The Large Glass, using dance as a tool for interpretation.

The result is a different kind of experience — one that does not replace but rather accompanies the traditional ways of engaging with the exhibition. Dance invites visitors to approach the works through the body and intuition, embracing the openness and uncertainty that every new language brings.
