Alessandro Risuleo and Mvula Sungani
The successful collaboration between the photogra-
pher, Alessandro Risuleo and the
choreographer, Mvula Sungani is an artistic project,
freely inspired by the show ‘Caruso’ by Mvula Sun-
gani, which involves the creation of static poses of
physical dance.
With “Caruso”, the title of which is inspired by the
memorable song of Lucio Dalla, Risuleo used his
art of photography to immortalize the poses of the
dance company’s protagonists, enhancing the per-
fect lines depicted by their bodies. The essentiality
and perfection of those shapes are highlighted by
the wine-making lattice applied on the bodies of the
dancers which emphasize their spectacular compo-
nents, as well as give life to the sculptural images and
contributing to point out the fluidity of their move-
ments.

Alessandro Risuleo, in this photographic project is
aligned with his own work, which has always been
focused into the use of the human body as symbol
of exemplary beauty and carries on his concept of
classicism by using the culture of the human figure.
The elegance of the images is made possible by the
ability of Risuleo to portray the posture of two danc-
ers during the solemn act of their performance.
