Details

Salā Lemi Ponifasio is a Samoan and New Zealand director, artist, dancer, designer and choreographer who achieved international acclaim for his confrontational and provocative theatre pieces. In 1995 he founded MAU in Auckland, working with communities and artists from all over the world and has been described as New Zealand's most prolific dance and theatre company. Lemi has been invited to perform at the Venice Biennale an unprecedented three times — for visual arts, dance and theatre. He has been the director of choice for the biggest theatrical production in Canadian history, the Luminato Festival’s revival of Apocalypsis, a two-part musical epic with more than a thousand performers and crew. He was also chosen by UNESCO to give the annual International Dance Day message in Paris for dancers around the world, for which he wrote a karakia for his message.
