Abstract

The Norden - Balkan - Culture - Switch 2003- 2005 is a series of artistic and cultural exchanges between the countries in Western Balkan and the Nordic countries supported by the Nordic Council of Ministers. The programme focused on young professionals in both regions and during the years 2003- 2005 more than 35 projects were carried out. This evaluation is based on the exchange programmes, and more specifically on a screening of the programmes for Literature, Music and Visual arts.In the realm of cultural projects there is a tendency to focus exclusively on the achieved results, without necessarily taking into account aims, processes, resources and perhaps most of all long-term effects. The criteria of success usually applied are audience appeal, budget balancing as well as media coverage among others, These are all significant factors, but if an appraisal of cultural project is to offer a broader perspective in terms of justifying the amount of resources spent on the projects, it must approach the actors and the processes themselves.This evaluation has focused on parameters related to aims and expectations, management and communications processes. The results, conclusions and recommendations point at important aspects to be taken into considerations in future project planning, including approaches for monitoring management and communications processes.

Abstract

There is a category of choreographic practice with a lineage stretching back to mid-20th century North America that has re-emerged since the early 1990s: dance as a contemporary art medium. Such work belongs as much to the gallery as does video art or sculpture and is distinct from both performance art and its history as well as from theater-based dance. The Persistence of Dance: Choreography as Concept and Material in Contemporary Art explores this history by looking at the continuities and differences between the second-wave dance avant-garde in the 1950s‒1970s and the third-wave starting in the 1990s. Through close readings of key artists such as Maria Hassabi, Sarah Michelson, Boris Charmatz, Meg Stuart, Philip Gehmacher, Adam Linder, Agatha Gothe-Snape, Shelley Lasica and Latai Taumoepeau, The Persistence of Dance traces the relationship between the third-wave and gallery-based work. Looking at these artists highlights how the discussions and practices associated with 'conceptual dance' resonate with the categories of conceptual and post-conceptual art as well as with the critical work on the function of visual art categories. Brannigan concludes that within the current post-disciplinary context, there is a persistence of dance and that a model of post-dance exists that encompasses dance as a contemporary art medium.

Abstract

Cette enquête repose sur l’étude du phénomène d’empathie kinesthésique en danse-théâtre, pour en révéler les enjeux éthiques. La contagion émotionnelle, kinesthésique et gravitaire, à l’œuvre en danse, entre les performeurs en scène et les spectateurs, est décrite au prisme de la phénoménologie de l’intentionnalité et des concepts merleau-pontiens de «?chair?» et d’entrelacs synesthésique. Le premier temps de cet essai explore la nature proprioceptive et charnelle du ressenti du spectateur pour ce qui meut l’interprète sur scène. Le deuxième temps fonde l’aperception empathique d’autrui sur le corps-vécu, afin d’attester de l’ancrage charnel de l’éthique et du souci d’autrui. L’objectif de cet essai est de mettre en évidence le pouvoir de soin-care des pratiques chorégraphiques par le jeu avec la gravité, ce qu’initie le troisième temps?; un tel «?soin?» étant à entendre au sens éthique plutôt que thérapeutique.

Abstract

Hélio Oiticica, né à Rio de Janeiro le 26 juillet 1937 et mort dans cette ville le 22 mars 1980, est un artiste plasticien et théoricien brésilien, à la fois sculpteur, peintre, performeur, cinéaste et écrivain. One of the most radical and joyful artists of the 20th century, Hélio Oiticica (1937-1980) helped lead the charge in Brazilian art's unique transition from abstract concrete art to performative objects and collective performance. As MoMA's 2019 exhibition 'Sur Moderno' demonstrated, one of Oiticica's most revolutionary projects was the Parangolé, wearable sculptures made from fabric, plastic or paper. The Parangolé is meant to be worn, inhabited and danced by a participant, lending a physical spontaneity to the piece that entirely blurs the boundaries between the art object and those who experience it. 'Dance in My Experience' traces the genealogy of this theme within the artist's oeuvre, identifying rhythmic, choreographic and dance elements throughout his trajectory, from his first Metaesquemas through the Spatial Reliefs, Nuclei and Bólides, culminating in the Parangolés. It includes texts by Oiticica and contributions by numerous scholars. Exhibition: MASP Museu de Arte São Paulo, Brazil (20.03.-27.09.2020) / MAM Rio, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil (Winter 2020-21)

Abstract

Combining critical analysis with personal history and poetry, Dancing Identity presents a series of interconnected essays composed over a period of fifteen years. Taken as a whole, these meditative reflections on memory and on the ways we perceive and construct our lives represent Sondra Fraleigh's journey toward self-definition as informed by art, ritual, feminism, phenomenology, poetry, autobiography, and-always-dance.Fraleigh's brilliantly inventive fusions of philosophy and movement clarify often complex philosophical issues and apply them to dance history and aesthetics. She illustrates her discussions with photographs, dance descriptions, and stories from her own past in order to bridge dance with everyday movement. Seeking to recombine the fractured and bifurcated conceptions of the body and of the senses that dominate much Western discourse, she reveals how metaphysical concepts are embodied and presented in dance, both on stage and in therapeutic settings.Examining the role of movement in personal and political experiences, Fraleigh reflects on her major influences, including Moshe Feldenkrais, Kazuo Ohno, and Twyla Tharp. She draws on such varied sources as philosophers Simone de Beauvoir and Martin Heidegger, the German expressionist dancer Mary Wigman, Japanese Butoh founder Tatsumi Hijikata, Hitler, the Bomb, Miss America, Balanchine, and the goddess figure of ancient cultures. Dancing Identity offers new insights into modern life and its reconfigurations in postmodern dance.

Abstract

"In October 2017, four internationally influential practitioners of immersive experiences gathered at the Snug Harbor Cultural Center on Staten Island in New York for a panel discussion on the creation of immersive productions. The panel, entitled "All the World is a Stage," was part of the Future of Storytelling Festival 2017 (FoST FEST), advertised as "the world's leading immersive storytelling event." During this discussion, each of the four panelists described examples of their work. Hector Harkness, Associate Director of Punchdrunk International, explained how the company created productions that "rip up the rules for the audience" so they can "go beyond the boundaries of closed environments." Food technologist, experience designer, and multimedia artist Emilie Baltz described inviting audiences to step up to a microphone and use their tongues, teeth, and lips to play musical popsicles in an installation called PopStars. Jon Sands, founder of Poets in Unexpected Places, revealed how his strategic placement of poets on subway cars across New York City turned commutes into impromptu poetry slams for unsuspecting riders, some of whom joined in by improvising their own poetic works. Justin "JB" Bolognino, CEO (Chief Experience Officer) of META, an experience production company, described his commissioning of Jon Morris, artistic director of the Brooklyn-based Windmill Factory, to design a music-festival queue into an experiential artwork. Entitled Right Passage, the work was a "room-scale sound and light performance installation" involving moving walls that guided festival participants efficiently into the concert venue (Windmill Factory 2017). Through their detailed descriptions of how their productions organized the bodies of performers and spectators in space and time, the panelists hinted at the presence of choreography in their productions"--

Abstract

"Architecture and Choreography: Collaborations in Dance, Space, and Time examines the field of archi-choreographic experiments-unique interdisciplinary encounters and performed events generated through collaborations between architects and choreographers. Forty case studies spanning four decades give evidence of the range of motivations for embarking on these creative endeavors and diverse conceptual underpinnings, generative methods, objects of inquiry and outcomes. Architecture and Choreography builds histories and theories through which to examine these works, the contexts within and processes through which the works emerged, and the critical questions they raise about ways to work together, sites and citations, ethics and equity, control and agency. Three themes frame pairs of chapters. The first addresses disciplinarity through works that critically reflect upon their discipline's tools, techniques, and conventions juxtaposed against projects that cite or use other art forms and cultural phenomena as source material. The second interrogates space and the role of spatial dispositifs, institutions, and sites, and their hidden and not-so-hidden conditions, as conceptual drivers and structures to subvert, trouble, unsettle, remember. The third asks who and what dances, finding a spectrum from mobilized architectural bodies to more-than-human cybarcorps. Modes of collaboration and the temporalities and life cycles of projects inform bookending chapters. Architecture and Choreography offers vital lessons not only for architects and choreographers but also for students and practitioners across design and performance fields"--
