This year in SPAA Production Arts… We go to the wonderful Prague!
Yes, that’s right! A few of SPAA Production Arts Students, along with Faculty, will be making their way to Prague this year for the 15th edition of the Prague Quadrennial (PQ) of Performance Design and Space.
This PQ edition will ‘present over 250 artworks in ten programme sections, ranging from scenographic models, multisensorial installations, scenic artefacts and costumes, and interactive and site-adaptive performances to performance architecture or space concepts…The program of PQ will be, again, to a large extent, composed of pieces by students and young emerging artists…’
Wondering what our SPAA students will be presenting…
Stay tuned in June as we cover the trip through our students on the ground!
8-18 June, Rare
'The 15th edition’s main theme is RARE, in a sense of unique and raw artistic realities: the focus of the festival will be on works springing out of ideas, materials, artistic approaches and craftsmanship specific to the environment, location and genius loci in which they are created.’
11 Days
150 Exhibitory Projects and Installations
50 Performances
Live Exhibition of 35 Concepts of Performance Spaces
60 Scenography inspired Publications
40 sessions of Expert Lectures
