Dance Collective Magija
performances
ANTISEZONA 20 online + live is bringing you a double bill weekend of works from Divert inclusive dance collective and Dance Collective Magija.
An inclusive approach to dance, one which makes contemporary dance available to dancers and choreographers of non-standard (physical and intellectual) abilities, is an integral part of the ANTISEZONA program. With their labour and dance performances, dancers with differently capable bodies change the perception of not only the performers’ bodies, but physicality itself on a broad social scale. In terms of choreography, working within the inclusive dance field destabilizes essential terms such as time, speed, gravitation, exposure, virtuosity, thus becoming a focal point of innovation in choreographic work and of questioning the practice of performance.
Video recordings of “My Other” and “Without a Timetable” – performances from Dance Collective Magija, choreographed by Gordana Svetopetrić, will be available for viewing from Friday, 8th May after 19:00 hours, until Sunday, 10th May through the following links:
