Two Mysterious “Mademoiselles”: Jeanne Rigaud and Maria Cantarelli. A Multilingual Multi-Layered Dada Pun Unravelled?
Original language description
In several historical accounts of Dada in Zurich the names of two women are mentioned as participants of a dance performance a spart of the so-called "Sturm-Soirée" on 14 April 1917 in the Galerie Dada: Jeanne Rigaud and Maria Cantarelli. As the article points out, Rigaud and Cantarelli were not two other women, of whom little more than a name survived, but probably nicknames referring via two multilingual, multi-layered puns to two women, who appeared already in 1920 as présidentes of the Mouvement Dada in a long list of “Quelques présidents et présidentes” (Tzara 1920a): Jeanne Rigaud being Sophie Taeuber and Maria Cantarelli being Maya Chrusecz, although in the case of Jeanne Rigaud it cannot be ruled out completely that the name refers to Klara Walther, a dancer and dance instructor of Laban’s school, who performed “Expressionist dances” at the opening party of the Galerie Dada, a fortnight before the “Sturm-Soirée”.
