Research cycles

Research Cycles is an educational cycle that brings together artists from different disciplinary, genre and cultural fields of creation. It runs in the form of artistic workshops which accentuate the body and its various channels of expression as the creative basis. It aims to share practical and theoretical knowledge about various branches of performance art and connect different generations. It offers space, time and mentorship to young and developing artists so they can explore and develop their skills and unique artistic languages through a varied selection of content.

We are announcing three parts of the workshops which will take place in the Cultural Centre Španski Borci:
– Contemporary flamenco: Marco de Ana, Carlos Ronda, July 5–8, 2021
– BBoundless expression: Sara Šoukal, Sara Janašković and Kristýna Šajtošová, August 2–5, 2021
– FusionARS: Žigan Krajnčan, September 23–26, 2021

Regular season 2021/2022 classes

Learning NEST art education will take place from the 2021/2022 season onwards. The program for our first season is based on intercultural practices, so the focus lays on flamenco dance courses led by dancer and pedagogue Urška Centa, which whom we simultaneously explore movement and music, and intertwine practical knowledge with theory to know more about the cultural currents that shape flamenco. The beginners class is led by pedagogue Mojca Medvedšek. The class called Principles of anatomical movement is intended to those who want to understand the movement of the human body better and use their own anatomical structures in a more the effective way. The program is led by dancers and pedagogues Kristýna Šajtošová, Anja Möderndorfer and Sara Janašković.
