4th Year Students of the Pre-School Education and Grammar School Ljubljana (dance department): Avantguard - Evening of dance solos, generation 2011/12.
Sad Sam Lucky, a solo creation by the Croatian choreographer and performer Matija Ferlin is a continuation of the ongoing romantic conceptual series SAD SAM that started in January 2004 in Amsterdam when the first Sad Sam Now I am was premiered. The second solo creation Sad Sam Almost 6 was presented in 2009.
The Pre-Première '12: Avantgarde is a performance with 92 students of two art programmes held at the Pre-School Education and Grammar School Ljubljana, namely contemporary dance and theatre. Together with their teachers and mentors, the students researched the characteristics of the avantgarde movements from the beginning of the previous century.
Transmittance#2 was performed in 2011 in Ljubljana, Slovenia and was the biggest Transmittance event until that moment. Invited local collaborators were artists from different fields of creation. Three hours performance was possible to follow live or on-line via http://transmittance.si, where audience could log in the chat room, interact with the performers and set the flow of the event.
Lights, performers’ bodies, a TV screen, the walls in space become projection screens for a gaze to rest upon, desires and thoughts of a spectator. Shame is a complex, integral and independent staging. It may dig up a memory or two and tenderly subject a person to re-questioning. It doesn’t provoke, it simply just touches you.
