“Connection” with Hristina Angelovska

October 8, 15, 22, 2020, 17:00 – 19:30 h

This training will be based on movements and exercises adapted for all active and passive participants and dance lovers. By listening and feeling our own body we will find ways and accordingly try to release it. We will try to eliminate fatigue, pain in certain parts of the body, to seek our own internal balance and to establish a connection with the time, space and circumstances surrounding us.

Тhis time of crisis, still continues, but we have decided not to give up the opportunity to hold classes on contemporary dance techniques and movement research: KULTRENING, but to adapt them to the circumstances.

Therefore, in the following two months, our collaborators – dance artists, will hold online classes!

Project and Summer School

About the Project /Curating in Context/

The 2019-2021 Erasmus+ project co-organized between two NGOs (Tanzfabrik Berlin and Lokomotiva Skopje), and two Higher Education Institutions (Stockholm University of the Arts and University of Zagreb) was developed to respond to the challenges of the growing influence of the concepts of curating and curatorial in the contemporary art field, beyond the sphere of visual arts. The project focuses on creating knowledge and opportunities for students, practitioners, curators, scholars and cultural workers to critically reflect and address different socio-political and economic contexts, and develop curatorial methods to rethink the practices of performing arts in relation to activism, social movements and self-organization. In a period of two years, the project comprises a series of meetings, public events and various resources that thematize collaborative learning approaches through curating between politics and policies, as well as valorisation of art with the greater goal of manifesting the impact of the cultural and civil sectors on society.
