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

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.

Mon réveil me réveille (2017)

 

Our day starts as soon as we wake up and lasts until we fall asleep. These two extremes align the primal unity of our lifetime. The idea of realizing these two ends in a short lapse of time and of questioning the act of awaking from sleep as an artificial force is the inspiration behind this work.

 

To indicate the process of time and to ritualize everday movements, this living installation creates a situation in which an artist sleeps with an alarm clock until she is woken by the alarm, repeatedly.

ALL AROUND

21/03/201923/03/2019

Drummer Will Guthrie and choreographer/dancer Mette Ingvartsen have been following each other’s work and collaborating at a distance over the past 5 years.

 

In this drum/dance duo they perform live together for the first time, bringing their respective disciplines into close proximity. The result is a fusion of forms: a music concert with dance. In All Around the audience encircles a performance space occupied by a drum kit, a moving light and the performers' bodies.
