Theater
Festival New Europe. Queer Gaze
Theatre does not subsist in one fixed form, it rather has the characteristics of a verb - it is used to name actions or states. Perhaps that is why crises are so good for theatre, because once an impasse is recognised, it tries to break it.
This year, the International New Europe Queer Gaze Festival
wants to become a space where the only rule is the absence of rules, and the perspective is diversity. We are trying to deal with the point of view - with the position from which we speak, in view of which something seems to us to be fixed, forever defined.
We deny to ourselves the right to make unambiguous diagnoses, to formulate meanings and we give the floor to the female Artists. Their diverse narratives are an attempt to blur the boundaries and definitions concerning the experience of female identity. We believe that the exchange of views, different optics and perspectives allows for conversation, for a deeper and richer experience of reality.
We oppose the ephemerality and festivalization of cultural life with an on going festival that lasts the whole season. We want the screenings not to resemble a temporary event, but rather to become a regular practice of meeting important artists of European and world theatre. We invite you to experience together, discover and clash various, different views, to engage in debates and disputes.
