11:00-13:00 Critical
Practice (Made in Yu)/closed working session
18:30-19:30 Presentation
of the work of Levi Gonzalez and Mariana Valencia, guests from USA as a part of
the GPS program
In the frame of GPS project of cooperation between
the USA and Eastern Europe in the field of contemporary dance and performance,
Faculty of Music Arts (University St. Cyril and Methodius) and Lokomotiva
(represented by Iskra Sukarova and Biljana Tanurovska – Kjulavkovski) will host
two New York based artists, Levi Gonzales and Mariana Valencia.
Levi will be sharing some of his current artistic
research in a performative lecture format, as well as informally sharing his
long history with the NYC based organization Movement Research and the impact
it has had on him and the communities it reaches. He is also looking forward to
opportunities to be in the studio with other artists to share creative practice
and dialogue.
Mariana researches her performance work from a
diaristic tableaux of personal narratives that encompass ethnography, memoir,
and observations on her cross-cultural identifiers. She looks to the histories
of urban spaces and juxtaposes them with her experiences in suburbia, the
countryside and the imaginary plane. From these observations that are factual,
humorous and grave, Mariana depicts the frame from where she self identifies
herself. Mariana’s root query in these performed texts is, I’m not sure who
will write a history about me; so I’m starting now so that they can have good
notes. She performs these vignettes in the form of an album -- both a
descriptive picture and song album -- to inform the audience about who she is
and why. This work creates an expressive arch that links text, dance and song.
