Birds

18/09/2022

Following the success of Tornar (2015) and INVITED (2018), dancer and choreographer Seppe Baeyens builds upon his exploration of shaping a temporary community in Birds.

What does it mean to feel at home? It’s a question photo and video artist Kamand Razavi was invited to explore as part of "Homelands, Places of Belonging", the community-based co-creative project led by newcomer artists, initiated by the International Yehudi Menuhin Foundation. The Iranian artist, in partnership with Résidences Art and KANAL-Centre Pompidou, went to meet local groups in Brussels and Molenbeek in order to find an answer that could resonate and find meaning in each of us.

SELFIE CONCERT

23/03/201924/03/2019

Selfie Concert is an interactive performance that will take place in the Workshops of KANAL–Centre Pompidou.

 

Artist, performer, singer and musician Ivo Dimchev proposes a new approach to concerts by including the audience.

 

Ivo Dimchev describes his project in a few words: ‘I like the idea of a concert during which people constantly take selfies with me while I sing. Selfie is a choreography. Selfie is a sculpture. Selfie is a tragedy. Selfie is love.

Selfie is less for me, more for us.’ Ivo Dimchev
