E-MOTIONAL BODIES&CITIES OPEN HOUSE

During the “Open House” meeting we will introduce you to the mobility and artistic exchange project E-Motional Bodies & Cities. We will describe the various opportunities the project offers to the artists and art managers who wish to share their experience and ideas in the field of contemporary dance.

There are four Latvian artists who have joined the project now: Olga Zitluhina, Kaspars Lielgalvis, Katrina Albuze and Anna Dubrovska. At the open house meeting they will tell about their current artistic work and give an insight of their involvement in E- Motional Bodies & Cities project.

Besides, you will have an opportunity to meet Romanian artists – Mihaela Dancs and Madalina Dan – who have spent 28 days in artistic residence in Riga. They have lived in the Floating Arts Centre Noass in September, 2011, working on a dance piece that will be premiered in October, 2011, and performed for a wide Latvian audience in November, 2011. In the evening of September 27th Mihaela and Madalina will present an outcome of their creative process in Riga.

Meeting will end with friendly informal chat over a glass of wine.
