VOYAGES DU GESTE 7- “LOOKING FOR A SPRING”

Organizer Khayal Association | Co-Organizers Subito Presto (France), Al Harah (Palestine), Propositário Azul (Portugal), Corai (Italy) | Organized within the framework of Voyages du Geste network

It is a project building on a 12-year partnership within the “Voyages du Geste” network and consisting of a 16-day interdisciplinary performing arts residency to build the artistic and human capacities of 20 young performance artists from 5 Euro-Mediterranean countries. The residency will be held in Lebanon and will be jointly run by trainers from the partner associations, in a multicultural artistic and non-academic context.   Participants and trainers will engage in a common reflection around the theme “Looking for a Spring”, raising questions such as: What is Revolution? What is Rebirth? What is Democracy?  Through different artistic expressions.

Voyages Du Geste 1 was initiated by Association Trisunic – Collectif Subito Presto in France with funding from EU, from PACA Region and Avignon European Capital of Culture for 50 young people from Lebanon, Palestine, Belgium, Italy and France.

ACTIVITIES

  1. One week workshop in France: the trainers will engage in a 1-week exchange to discuss methodologies and interdisciplinary approaches to be integrated in the residency.
  2. Organizational meeting in June in Lebanon to finalize the preparations.
  3. The residency in August in Lebanon: the artists will attend training workshops in different Performing Arts disciplines (Alexander technique, voice, storytelling, puppets, movement, improvisation, music etc.) to create scenes around the proposed theme.
  4. Publishing of a trilingual book about the 6 previous residencies and other “Voyages du Geste” projects to share this collaborative model and the experiences gained from it with a wider audience.

The project is unique as it:

  • Builds on the long experience of the Voyages du Geste network in a Euro-Mediterranean collaboration based on mutual respect.
  • Brings together –among others – young Palestinians and Lebanese artists in Lebanon overcoming border restrictions.
  • Is based on an interdisciplinary experimental artistic approach.
  • Supports the mobility of young artists from different Euro- Mediterranean countries
  • Will enable young performance artists to go through interdisciplinary artistic work together using five different languages and sharing 5 different cultural experiences to voice their opinions of how they want their future to be and what is the change they want to see in their countries.
