PSR The Fortnight

For this PSR, the ICC team has invited artists who address diverse issues and topics related to queer identities, alternative dynamics of pornography, anal politics, the concept of holes as a seclusive system, and pleasure as politically relevant. Through collective practices of co-dreaming, co-thinking, and co-imagining, dance and choreography become active practices aimed at constructing softer and more accurate spaces for contemporary desires within our cultural landscapes.

Through Performative and Choreographic Practices – Workshop by Thiago Granato

Thiago Granato gives a workshop at CoFestival in Lubljana: Through Performative and Choreographic Practices.

Thiago Granato invites to an artistic immersion where individual and collective work situations serve as a basis for exploring different compositional logics. Through choreography we studies the body’s performative capacity to create, penetrate, melt, fuse, move and transform different contexts. With this workshop Granato shares his work methodology and propose parameters to discuss how we can identify, situate and sustain a performative practice and a choreographic project nowadays.

This workshop led by Rok Vevar and Jasmina Založnik draws on documentary film footage from the collection of the Temporary Slovenian Dance Archive at the Museum of Contemporary Art Metelkova.
