AGON programme is an informal education, research and self-development programme in the field of contemporary dance and performing arts.
The aim is to offer workshops and classes for performers in order to give support for artists that nowdays need master different techniques and modes of expression in order to attain a free and contemporary artistic expression. Agon offers situations of research and collaboration, through which participants gain multilayered knowledge, while at the same time it encourages them to connect and integrate different contents. Through dialogue, exchanges and collaboration, Agon provides improvement in technical mastery of skills and in development of participants’ creative potential.
Ame Henderson’s work with the Toronto-based company Public Recordings draws on choreographic strategies, embodied action, language, sound, objects, framing and architectural space to create a shared language for live performance.
Guillermo Gómez-Peña, Dani d'Emilia and Erica Mott will share their performance methodology, an eclectic combination of exercises sampled from various traditions as well as theoretically analys of the creative process and the issues addressed by the work, its aesthetic currency, cultural impact and political pertinence.
In the workshop we are working on voice through the body – the body is an instrument of voice, body resonates when we sing and the body carries the voice.
