Antoine Zivelonghi, LES HISTOIRES CRÉENT L'HISTOIRE, 10.10.2020
KarteNoire2502, founded in 2019 by Mor Dovrat, Fanny Krähenbühl, Samuel Müller, and Antoine Zivelonghi in Biel/Bienne, has become a central platform for local performing artists. Initially a collective, KarteNoire2502 facilitates continuous artistic exploration and regular engagement with the public.
In its first three years, we hosted events in various venues around Biel/Bienne, including La Voirie, Nebia Poche, Format26, Juraplatz, and Espace Libre Visarte, as well as public spaces in the old town.
Since 2022, under the artistic direction of Mor Dovrat, KarteNoire2502 has transformed into a platform for local performing artists. Our philosophy is that artistic exploration begins on stage, not through writing dossiers. This belief drives our approach, in which artists are given a week to delve into a common theme and create short performances ranging from 7 to 20 minutes. Our performances provide a trampoline for new artistic experiments, many of which evolved into full-length productions.
Since 2023, KarteNoire2502 has been working in partnership with INCUBO, an experimental live arts development platform based at the BIOTOP Theatre, Biel/Bienne. Each September, during the INCUBO season, we open the creative kitchen of the Bieler free scene to the public and present short performances created during a week-long residency. The 2025 program will feature 12 performances by 14 local artists over three themed evenings.
KarteNoire2502 continues to be a dynamic force in the performing arts, reflecting the cultural and linguistic diversity of Biel/Bienne.
