MEETINGS (Athens) Ermira Goro
10th International ARC FOR DANCE FESTIVAL 2018
26 May 2018  Kivotos Theatre, 115 Pireos Avenue
How does one endure or enrich a movement from the peculiarities of each body? How does an "'untaught'" body transform from a movement or rhythm that does not belong to its everyday vocabulary? What feelings can be caused by this almost voyeuristic matching?
With the desire to create a collective experience that values diversity and redefines the notion of power and beauty, Ermira Goro creates "Meetings" of very different people, - gender, ethnicity, body, age, ability- in an attempt to disconnect viewers from the dancer's identification with a body youthful, muscular, trained, "perfect".
Through the exploration of individuality and personal kinesiological expression, as well as the complexity and diversity of the performers bodies, "Meetings" lead the viewer to distinguish on stage parts of his own self and to review what "right" and "appropriate" means.

ANTISTOLI Pantelis Makas Behind the scenes
ATHENS & EPIDAURUS FESTIVAL 2018
OPENING 10 JUNE - 19 JULY
260 PIREOS AVENUE, SECTION A2
Antistoli is an artistic video re-enactment. Guided by choreographer Angeliki Stellatou, sixty performers clash, while the camera minutely captures the violence, the persons’ bodies, feelings and faces, the overall ambience, the vibe, the fear, the dynamics of the crowd. With the help of a high-speed camera (400 frames per second), Makkas transforms three minutes of intense live action into a 45-minute single shot. Antistoli is structured as a slow-speed presentation of a single shot, without any external intervention in the flow and the development of the events and without editing. In addition to his rich body of work as a visual artist and research, Pantelis Makkas is also an accomplished video artist, with collaborations with Greek Art Theatre Karolos Koun, National Theatre of Greece, ODC Ensemble (Re-Volt Athens and Louisette: The Backstage to Revolution, both presented at Athens Festival), the Apo Michanis Theatre. Makkas has also worked as set designer and actor.
