Exhibition Stages of a Flight: 30.10. – 17.12.
30.10.2017, 6 pm | Vernissage and Performance Dreaming + The Brothers Lionheart
The vernissage started with the performance “Dreaming + The Brothers Lionheart” – a work in progress presenting an excerpt of the upcoming performance.
If it´s not possible in the reality, it will come true in your dreams. Is it true, that for every Lionheart, there is a Nangijála waiting?
In this dance performance based on a book by Astrid Lindgren, children overcome their fears and fulfil their dreams.
The music was created and is played by children themselves. Lenka Tretiagová wrote the script and Sebastián Vích is in charge of lighting design.
Inspired by the topic of the exhibition Studio Alta will create a theater piece in cooperation with Dschungel Wien and the director Lenka Tretiagová with the children of Studio Altik. Therefore the Czech creative team including children performers are participated in a workshop in Vienna, led by Dschungel Wien and choreographer Sanja Troop-Frühwald, dealing with the topic of sleeping and dreaming.
The touring exhibition Stages of a Flight has its first stop at Studio Alta in Prague, October 30th until December 17th. The project aims to bring the stories of people that journalist Nermin Ismail and photographer Simon van Hal encountered on their flight, to a wider public. Starting with the events in Syria, coming through Greece and stopping at the boarders, different people raise their voice and let us have a glance on their fates. The photographer and the journalist accompanied these protagonists on their escape to Hungary, Slovenia, Austria and Germany as well as to Greece and Turkey. The project’s aim is not only to give a face and a voice to refugees, but also to overcome prejudices in order to increase awareness in the society, who is supposed to give these people a new home. The focus is directed on their arrival, on questions of living-together and the enriching transformation our cities are facing.More information the the exhibition: http://living-realities.eu/exhibition/
