New Post-graduate course in Performance, Choreography and Expanded Practices
ESAP is expanding its educational offer by starting a unique Post-graduate course in Performance, Coreography and Expanded Practices.
Performance, Choreography and Expanded Practices
Presentation
The Post-graduate course in Performance, Choreography and Expanded Practices presents a theoretical and practical study programme that strives to provide critical and practical skills within performance, dance, choreography, expanded practices and the curating of performance in several contexts: exhibitions, theatre, public spaces, and alternative spaces.
Bringing together different modes of research, art education, critical theory and experimental labs comprising of a wide range of approaches (performance and choreography studies, expanded practices, queer, decolonial and intersectional studies, political and environmental theory), this course will enable singular performative practices able to negotiate the contemporary complexity, while stimulating ways of re-imagining, through performance and performative discourses, artistic, ethical and political interventions in a multi-species and post-planetary world in constant change.
The course is devised for professionals and students with multiple backgrounds: visual arts, performative arts, theatre, dance, architecture, cinema, history of art, curating, landscape studies, photography, cultural management/production, social sciences, gender studies, philosophy, literature, among others.
The Post-graduation in Performance, Choreography and Expanded Practices aims to:
- Provide thorough knowledge on performance critical studies, choreography, expanded practices and curating in relation to theatrical, museum and alternative spaces
- Delevop creative processes and methodologies related to performance, choreography, expanded practices and curating performance
- Acquire critical and aesthetic tools on contemporary debates contributing for a critical and multiple artistic practice, such as gender, queer, decolonising, intersectional, and environmental studies
- Develop academic and artistic autonomy
