On the occasion of DADA Centenary in 2016, Fluxum Foundation and Flux Laboratory present a new agenda of cultural events in relation  to the celebration. 
Taking for central reflection the theme " How to give a price to values? ", we propose an exclusive program of conference, readings, performances and exhibitions in two phases, from 05 till 10 February 2016 in Flux Laboratory Zürich, then from April 24th till May 08th 2016 in Flux Laboratory Geneva.
In this context, the Foundation invited the visual artist Denis Savary to develop a performance, "Lagune", inspired by the work of the artist Sophie Taeuber Arp.
It is a flexible and evolutionary thirty minutes performance which consists in reproducing on stage or in an open space, a city with reduced size. A city among which the various constituent elements - facades, ramparts, towers, noises etc. - will be carried, moved, put in act by six dancers and a puppeteer, Evelyne Villaime, with the support of the dancer and young choreographer Jeremy Tran.

"Lagune" will be presented in Zurich, Paris, Geneva and Athens on the following dates: 

4.02.16 SIK-ISEA Zurich from 6pm
5.02.16 UZH Ethnographic Museum Zurich at 7 pm
