Alexandre Morin
A rising force on Québec’s contemporary scene, he crafts a precise and committed choreographic voice, grounded in extensive experience as a performer.
Alexandre Morin is a choreographer, performer, and teacher at the École de danse contemporaine de Montréal. A graduate of EDCM in 2013, he received the Hnatyshyn Foundation grant awarded to a promising young contemporary dance artist in Canada.
As a dancer, he has danced for Marie Chouinard, Sylvain Émard, and Dominique Porte to name a few. In 2022, he was selected for a choreographic exchange between Italy and Quebec, offered by CALQ, Circuit-Est and CSC Centro per la Scena Contemporanea in Bassano del Grappa.
The 2023–2024 season was a pivotal year for Morin, as he presented three well-received shows back-to-back: Anatomie d’un moteur (Agora de la danse), Plasticity/Desires (co-produced by MAI and La Chapelle Scènes Contemporaines), and Cutting Through the Noise (Agora de la danse).
Raw energy, spatial geometries, and electronic pulses. In the intimate setting of Agora de la danse, the Morin/Leroux duo delivers a physical performance in which five dancers search for the tipping point between exhilaration and transcendence.
