The event will be held in English.
At a two-day discussion event, four groups of dance critics, theoreticians and publicists in collaboration with choreographers and assisted by video material will address selected topical perspectives that emerge when reviewing the recent contemporary dance productions in Slovenia. Over the last two decades, the contemporary dance practices in our country have evolved in a series of creative models, contents, aesthetics and principles which testify to the most variegated approaches to dance as well as different viewings and notions of contemporary dance. The aim of this event is to explore a certain field of reference over a certain period of time in order to determine some potential relations in content that will serve future reflections. The event is organised in collaboration with Methodologies of notating Slovenian choreographies of contemporary dance (Emanat Institute) and is content-wise related to the individual aspects of selected performances at the festival Gibanica 2017.
