The text authored by Jette Ostan Vejrup is part of the speech at the opening of the exhibition dedicated to Maria Vera in the National Theatre Museum of Slovenia in 2005.
The only freedom for Pia and Pino was to dance; their space has always been the world; dancing and ceaselessly travelling across the arch spread between the compressed fretfulness of dance halls and the endless horizon where the sea meets the sky. The performance of A Two-Step According to Pia and Pino tackles the dance and life lore of one of the greatest Slovenian dance couples of all times precisely through their great love. Onstage the dancers build a new mosaic of contents that are born out of bodies and through music, seeking inspiration in the life of Pia and Pino, full of encounters and artistic creations, torn between living at home and abroad, moving and being still, Eros and Ethos, and inspired by the "Holy Trinity”: beauty, goodness, and truth.
