Lucia Kašiarová, Peter Šavel, Tomáš Vtípil: Eau de Vie

Lucia Kašiarová, Peter Šavel, Tomáš Vtípil: Eau de Vie

This performance takes place at Studio ALTA on November 15th at 11AM, 3PM and 7PM.

Let´s experience the present moment. Let´s taste it. Let´s smell it. Let´s listen to it. Let´s see it. Maybe it will touch us. Eau de Vie is not a performance. Eau de Vie is a shared event. The condition for creating this event is a group, space and the will to experience something together. The moment changes according to the group and space. Two dancers and one musician research the rules of an event, which are ceaselessly changing. The only certainty are the inspirations by Frida Kahlo, Japanese geishas, samurais and haiku. Eau de Vie is a journey. A journey via the others towards ourselves and vice versa.

Concept, performed by: Lucia Kašiarová, Peter Šavel
Live music: Tomáš Vtípil
Produced by: danceWATCH / Karolína Hejnová
This project has a limited capacity – please, make a reservation in advance at rezervace@altart.cz.

Women Fighting for Marginalized Groups´ Rights – a discussion at Studio ALTA

Women Fighting for Marginalized Groups´ Rights – a discussion at Studio ALTA

We invite you to a discussion with prominent Czech and foreign female dissidents and activists on November 9th, 7PM at Studio ALTA.

During this debate, different women from the Czech Republic, Slovakia and Norway will talk about their values and fates, which led them to an active enforcing of marginalized groups´ lives – refugees, Roma people or children of war, the so-called Lebensborn. They will reveal their personal motivations for fulfilling this mission and what it is about to become a dissident or an oppressed group spokeswoman. The debate will also include a comparison of the situation 25 years ago and now. We will also talk about the differences in the position and feelings of women and men in the oppressed groups and what are women´s advantages and weak spots.

The debate is co-organized by the Association for Integration and Migration.
