Videodance_6 on the Connections: Transdance_1 Festival
Tuesday, May 13, 2008
Townhouse Gallery, Kairo, Egypt
Townhouse Gallery for contemporary art is one of the region's leading independent spaces for the arts, providing an extensive programme of visual arts, film, theatre and music. It is located in the former factory space in the multiethnic neighbourhood of Kairo. Apart from being one of the largest private exhibition spaces in the Middle East, the gallery organises also workshops, lectures, and other events, as well as residency and curatorial programme.
The interdisciplinary festival under the title Connections has been initiated by Adham Hafez, working in-between performances, sounds, installation& texts. Each edition of the festival is focused on a specific topic, this time - as TransDance :1 - on Transdisciplinary approaches on dance.
As a partner, SCCA-Ljubljana collaborates with the 82-minutes programme of videodance works entitled Videodance_6 and curated by Barbara Borčić.
