Project description:

The project will significantly strengthen the artistic cooperation between the three cultural houses / cultural centers, which for many years have shaped and created the conditions for creation for artists from many artistic genres and thus actively supported (and are still supporting) professional contemporary art. Studio ALTA (Czech Republic / Prague), Baerum Kulturhus (Norway / Sandvika) and Black Box Theater (Norway / Oslo).

Within the framework of this bilateral cooperation project, activities supporting the creation of new performances and artistic projects will be realized by 4 artistic residences, 3 co-productions, 2 performances of Norwegian artists in the Czech Republic and 1 Czech premiere in Baerum Kulturhus in Norway, 2 Czech premieres at Studio ALTA (in Prague) and reprises of the performances in Prague and regions of the Czech Republic.

Artists from the Czech Republic, Norway and Iceland will be involved in the artistic cooperation. For the project, each partner selected a group of prominent contemporary artists who develop and combine contemporary dance, Performing Arts, visual arts and new media. Our project is, therefore, a multidisciplinary project. During the implementation of the project there will also be three activities directly strengthening the capacity of artists (discussions, courses) and at least 6 activities strengthening the capacity of cultural organizations (sharing experience and skills, developing common themes, workshops and courses).
