Claire Croizé has won the first prize at the Prix Jardin d’Europe 2009 for The Farewell. The international jury of 4 professionals working in the contemporary dance scene (Pieter T’Jonck, Charlotte Vandevyver, Ula Sickle & Christa Spatt) explains:

“she succeeds in giving an equal importance to the elements of dance, lighting and music in confronting the major with the minor and likewise the minor with the major. The performance has the potential to reach a large public without watering down the choreographer’s artistic integrity.”
