Alghero program
15-25 september 2004 Dance in light is a program focused on the issue of visibility Light is at the same time a symbolic and tangible element,
it is a material to which artists will confront themselves and with which
they will play to inhabit urban imaginary spaces, creating luminous installations
and performances in the city. This program will be presented to the public
at the end of the residency in Sardinia. The participants will have the
opportunity to address the use of the light with expert light designers
and investigate the relationship between light, body and space.
How to give visibility to the creative process and not only to the
achieved work? Artists will investigate Alghero’s context through
impromptu actions in different places of the city. Besides, the organisation
of laboratories dedicated to artists and the local public, meetings
and public presentations of the work will contribute to make this international
program visible on the territory. The conference organised on the 23th and 24th September will be the occasion to address the link between criticism and artistic work. Entitled “Perceive and communicate dance and its context:criticism and journalism for dance” the conference will be animated by art critics and journalists coming from different countries. To give visibility to artists and their work also means to structure
methodologies and networks on a long-term basis, contributing to foster
the production and distribution of their work. This is a crucial issue
in the southern countries where the artists badly suffer from isolation
and where the artistic and cultural field shows a big lack of management
skills. This program will be ending on the 25th September through the link
with another event organised by the Municipality of Alghero about Art
and philosophy “communication, images and visibility” including
the intervention of philosophers and well-known artists. PROGRAM:
