ANTOINE LE MÉNESTREL

Monday December 8 – 19:00 Euskalduna Bilbao 

Antoine Le Ménestrel was one of the prodigies who invented free climbing in the 1980s. He took climbing to new heights, combining the search for challenge with creativity. He is the living memory of a movement that inspires millions of young people to take up climbing today. In ‘Folambule’, he recounts with moving sincerity how his exploration of movement on the cliffs went hand in hand with his inner torments. His unique vertical trajectory led him to artistic creation. Today, he is a choreographer and dancer with the Lézards Bleus company, which creates dance-climbing shows.
