a cross-border artistic project proposed by Cosmin Manolescu (RO) in partenership with

Gabriella Maiorino (Amsterdam) and HeJin Jang (Seoul/New York)

 

 

Three choreographers from three different cities - Bucharest, Amsterdam, Seoul - will engage in creating a co-authorship performance entirely based on an online communication during a 4-month period.

Each of them will make himself/ herself available to the others and thus commit to develop a solo performance based on Facebook communication, youtube links, messages and photos proposed by the others. The three solos will be developed during a three weeks residence in his own city/country.

Following this exchange, they will meet in Bucharest in November 2011 for a two weeks residence in order to put together the solos and present the performance together on the stage - Premiere on the 18th November in Cluj-Napoca, Romania.

 

 

On the 2nd of December Gabriella will lead a masterclass in collaboration with Cosmin Manulescu at ArtEZ, Arnhem within the initiative FRIENDS - Click here for more information.

 

 

 

The project started with a kick-off meeting in Amsterdam and Den Haag in May 2011 when Cosmin Manolescu, Gabriella Maiorino and HeJin Jang met and discussed the details of the project (themes, process, calendar etc). Gabriella and Cosmin met in “Europe in Motion” exchange project hosted by Springdance festival in April 2009 in the Netherlands, while Cosmin and HeJin met during the Moving Dialogue exchange project that took place in New York in October 2010.
