Artist Training DIGITAL BASICS - PERFORMING ARTS Coaching Progam 2023
Artist Training DIGITAL BASICS – PERFORMING ARTS coaching program 2023
“Body Practice” by Nora Amin & Maryna Makarenko
Artist Training Coaching Program in PERFORMING ARTS offers workshop and mentoring sessions to all body-based practitioners: performers, dancers, actors etc based in Berlin. The first session of the program will focus on finding out the participants' needs and interests that would be closely explored in the second workshop session. Besides that we will visit Berlin-based venues and meet representatives from relevant organisations, like Internationales Theaterinstitut (ITI) / German Centre of the International Theatre Institute, which includes many projects/initiatives (i.e. Touring Artists, Digitalization projects, Studio2 & residencies). We will also visit a model of independent theatre association working on Theatre of the Oppressed, to understand how socio-politically engaged art can be formed in solidarity and how to initiate critical practices of community training and performance. The program offers a final networking event where artistic formats from the participants can be presented and discussed. Individual mentoring sessions are also offered, constituting almost half the hours of the program. The mentoring tandem for the program are Nora Amin, choreographer, performer and author, and Maryna Makarenko, multidisciplinary artist and performer.
We will also support you in developing your individual strategies, creative path and networking skills. This program is being held in English (and Ukrainian if necessary).
