João Fiadeiro © Ana Viotti

João Fiadeiro

Born in 1965, João Fiadeiro is part of a generation of choreographers that emerged in the late 1980’s and gave rise to the Nova Dança Portuguesa (New Portuguese Dance).

 

His career, both as a choreographer or performer and as a researcher or curator, has centered on creating conditions for experimentation, for laboratorial practices and for the intersection between artistic and scientific research. This activity was developed as much by coordinating programming and artistic research projects at Centro Cultural da Malaposta [1990-95], Espaço Ginjal [1995-98], Lugar Comum [1999-2000], Espaço A Capital [2000-2002] and Atelier Real [2004-2019] as by his artistic practice through his choreographies and the research workshops on and around Real Time Composition.

 

In all these different platforms João Fiadeiro was always accompanied by artists that participated as creators, performers, researchers and programmers, contributing in a decisive manner to the existence of this project through thirty years of non-stop activity.

General Conditions

  1. Support for 6 projects selected by Forum Dança management;
  2. Scholarship worth €750 (seven hundred and fifty euros) per residency, upon sending a green receipt or equivalent (in the case of artists not residing in Portugal*);

Mostras informais

Forum Dança - Aulas Regulares - Do Corpo Ao Corpo - Gisela Dória

From Body
to Body

Interdisciplinary Movement Practices

With Gisela Dória

Monday | 19h00-20h30

 

“Do Corpo ao Corpo consists of regular classes based on the practice that Gisela Dória has been developing over many years of pedagogical and artistic experience. The work proposed here dialogues with a variety of techniques, of which Dance, Pilates, Gyrokinesis®, and various Somatic Education practices, including the Klein Technique™, stand out. More than a synthesis of these techniques, the classes promote the integration of different approaches in favor of a sensitivity that takes the uniqueness of each body as a starting point.

 

The goal is to develop awareness of the physical structure in order to make movement more functional and pleasurable, contributing to maintaining the body’s vitality. These classes thus open paths for self-observation, providing each person with the necessary resources for the continued (re)education of their movement.

 

Classes are open to adults of all ages, with no technical or physical prerequisites.”

Forum Dança - Workshop Butoh 2023 - Yael Karavan

Workshop Butoh
Yael Karavan

21 and 22 of January | 11h00 – 17h00

Butoh and Metamorphoses – the Poetry of Images

 

“Inside this one body, there are various mythic things that are still sleeping intact… The work is how to excavate them…” – Tatsumi Hijikata, founder of Butoh

 

Poetic imagery is one of the greatest powers of Butoh dance. Exploring the present body, empty body, body as a vessel and the transformation of our physical states thanks to images.

Butoh is an avant-garde dance of transformation created at the end of the 50 in Japan. Butoh is not a technique but a method and philosophy, an approach to dance that is born within us and connects us to our essence, nature, universe and the cycles of life and death.

The main elements that will be explored in the workshop are metamorphoses, dance through imagery, presence, awareness, and the tension between opposites. The aim is to free the body from its mundane preconceived set of gestures and movements and thus allowing us to access a deeper and more authentic essence of movement and archetypal expression. Questioning how Butoh can be translated into a European Body and why is Butoh not just relevant but extremely vital nowadays.

Yael Karavan has more than 25 years of experience in Butoh, during which he had the opportunity to work with the founders of Butoh in Japan: Kazuo Ohno and Motofuji San – wife of Tatsumi Hijikata – as well as with Tadashi Endo and the MAMU dance theatre, Yumiko Yoshioka and Ten-Pen-Chi, Sankai Juku, Atsushi Takenuchi, Minako Seki, Carlota Ikeda, Yuko Kawamoto, Akira Kasai, Natsu Nakajuma among others.

Experimental
Erotica Laboratories

Experimental Erotica Laboratories
14 and 21 October, 18h-20h

Free Workshop gratuito | Registrations are open

Participation is free, with prior registration to our email.

This laboratory will be supervised by Katarina Lanier and is part of the research process she is developing within the scope of her artistic residency “Dances of Desire”, taking place at Forum Dança.

 

“The purpose of these laboratories is to open up the material I have been investigating in the context of the creation of my piece Call Me Three Times, developed within PACAP 5. *
Over the next few weeks of residency, I aim to pull out materials from the constructed piece, blow them up, touch their edges, and dislocate the erotic elements I was focused on sharing as completed images.” – Katarina Lanier

 

About the workshop

The labs will be divided into two parts: one body (which could be considered a warm-up) which will lead to a video exploration with the use of devices we have available (cell phones, cameras, computers, etc.)
During the two sessions, we will be engaged in individual and collective body practices with the goal of opening up the participants to sensations and their potential expressions. We will use these body practices and the conversations around them to experiment with their translation into short videos focused on producing desire, poetics, and attraction.
This laboratory is welcome to everybody.
Please come in loose clothing to move, and a few objects/elements that you consider to be potentially erotic (possible examples: songs that make you want to dance, clothes that make you want to touch yourself, objects that make you want to touch others, etc.)

Stretch and Placing- Klein Technique™ - Forum Dança

Stretch and Placement
– Klein Technique™

With Gisela Dória

Member of the Klein Technique™ Training Program

Thursday | 18h00-19h20

From October 6 to November 24, 2022

 

“Klein Technique™ is an ongoing process of discovery. It requires a constant articulation of theoretical information and experiential practice. Like nature, it is ordered and infinite in its discovery. The goal of Klein Technique™ is education at a deep level of understanding the total use of the body to maximize each individual’s unique movement potential. It is a technique that honors the individual. It aims to teach movement from the individual perspective of internal knowledge and understanding. Students at all levels of Klein Technique™ practice will gain insight into their movement patterns and habits and gain a greater internal understanding of their bodies.

 

It is a process-oriented practice of great value to people of all proficiency levels, dancers and non-dancers alike.

 

In this workshop we will work from simple exercises and slow stretches that seek to align our bone architecture so we can find connection with our deeper postural support musculature. Because these muscles are intimately connected to the bones, they are also intimately related to movement. Klein Technique™ is a deep and ongoing investigation aimed at bringing learning, good positioning, stretching, strengthening and healing to the body in a connected and integrated way.”

About the lecture cycle “My Dance History”

 

“All of us, dancers, choreographers or performers, have received in some way and by some route, more academic or more self-taught, an idea of the History of Dance, or the History of the Performing Arts, from which we feel “descended” (and perhaps we feel descended from several Histories at the same time!). There were certainly choreographic or scenic creators who made us understand the art we make the way we understand it today. Each one has a specific idea of how that History unfolded, and for each one there are certain creators and certain movements and artistic currents that contributed to configure the idea of dance that you have and practice and that, in some way, is responding to that History. These lectures will give us the opportunity to know the History of Dance that each one has created within themselves.”
Vera Mantero

After R|EXISTÊNCIA last December, PACAP 5 – an artistic training programme by Forum Dança curated by João Fiadeiro – returns to TBA to present the individual projects of the students/researchers. They will use the tools developed and tested in the early stages of the course, attempting to match the initial question-affect with this public gesture. It is often only when the gesture is concluded and becomes public that we clearly see if what we have said/done is exactly what we wanted to say/do. It rarely is. And that is a good thing.

Palestra "A Minha História da Dança", por Rui Horta

My Dance History,
by Rui Horta

June 23 at 6:30 pm
Galveias Palace Library • Lisbon
Approximate duration: 2 hours

Free entry, upon registration in the following form available .

Bio

Born in Lisbon, Rui Horta began dancing at the age of 17 in ballet courses at the Ballet Gulbenkian, having later lived for several years in New York, the city where he completed his training and developed his career as a performer and teacher. In 84 he returned to Lisbon, being one of the most important drivers of a new generation of Portuguese dancers and choreographers.

During the 90’s he lived in Germany where he directed the SOAP Dance Theater Frankfurt, his work being considered a reference of European dance and presented in the most important theaters and festivals around the world, namely at the Thêatre de la Vile, which co-produced his work over a decade.

In 2000 he returned to Portugal, having founded “O Espaço do Tempo” in Montemor-o-Novo, a multidisciplinary center for residencies and artistic experimentation.

In addition to his intense work as an independent creator, Rui Horta created, as a guest artist, a vast repertoire for renowned companies such as the Cullberg Ballet, the Gulbenkian Ballet, the Grand Ballet de l’Opera de Genéve, the Marseille, the Netherlands Dance Theatre, the Gothenburg Opera Dance Company, Icelandic Ballet, Scottish Dance Theatre, Random Dance, Carte Blanche, Ballet am Gartner Platz, Ballet de Roubaix, Ballet of the Opera of Linz, Ballet of the Opera of Nuremberg, Tanzmainz, &c.

Throughout his career he received important awards and distinctions such as the Grand Prix de Bagnolet, the Bonnie Bird Award, the Deutsche Produzent Preis, the Acarte Award, the Almada Award, the degree of Officer of the Ordem do Infante, the degree of Chevalier de l’Ordre des Arts et des Lettres, by the French Ministry of Culture.

His choreographic creation has been classified as Heritage of German Dance. In the performing arts, his work as a director extends to theatre, opera, the new circus, and experimental music, as well as being a light designer and multimedia researcher, a universe he frequently uses in his works.

About the lecture cycle “My Dance History”

 

“All of us, dancers, choreographers or performers, have received in some way and by some route, more academic or more self-taught, an idea of the History of Dance, or the History of the Performing Arts, from which we feel “descended” (and perhaps we feel descended from several Histories at the same time!). There were certainly choreographic or scenic creators who made us understand the art we make the way we understand it today. Each one has a specific idea of how that History unfolded, and for each one there are certain creators and certain movements and artistic currents that contributed to configure the idea of dance that you have and practice and that, in some way, is responding to that History. These lectures will give us the opportunity to know the History of Dance that each one has created within themselves.”
Vera Mantero

About the book

“Alto, Baixo, num Sussurro

by Romana Romanyshyn and Andriy Lesiv

BOLOGNA RAGGAZZI AWARD 2018 | non-fiction

 

“Where is music born? What is a decibel? What does an acoustic engineer, a DJ or a sound designer do? How do people who cannot hear any sound communicate? Here is the illustrated encyclopedia that today’s readers, students, teachers or just lovers of music and the invisible world of sounds were missing. Alto, Baixo, Num Sussurro tells us about the different sounds that exist, but also about the importance of silence, and of listening and listening to the other. Often without using words.”

Forum Dança - PACAP 5 | Workshops Abertos

PACAP 5 | Bloc 3
Open Workshops

Block III: Individual investigation processes of each participant

WORKSHOPS within the scope of PACAP 5 open to external students.

About the workshops

 

“During the course of the third bloc of PACAP 5, the participants will be visited by five artists – Gustavo Sumpta, Mette Edvardsen, Eleonora Fabião and the duo Luara Raio/Acauã El Bandide Sereya – who will share with the group their composition processes and strategies for the development of their projects. They are artists who share similar premises in the relationship they develop with the artistic gesture, especially in terms of their work ethic and radical commitment to the present. They also have in common a critical position in relation to their disciplines, not letting themselves be captured by any kind of artificial and manipulative cataloging. We make sure that they were artists who were quite different from each other, both at the formal level and at the geographical and generational level.” – PACAP 5 curatorial team

Pelvic
Dance

With Luiza Cascon

From 9:30 am to 10:30 am on the following dates

  • May: 3, 5, 10, 12, 24, 26

  • June: 7, 9, 21, 23

“PELVIC DANCE arises from the investigation of pelvic movements through dance and body awareness practices. In this workshop we will work on the mobility of the pelvis and the activation of energy flows that are directly linked to creativity and sexuality.
The pelvic area was our first home, and the origin of life. Dancing with the hips is, in many cultures, a ritual to celebrate fertility, as well as the cycles of life. Unfortunately, in patriarchal society, this area of the body is seen as a taboo, and little is taught about self-care with our health and sexuality in general.
Through somatic practices, music and DANCE of different styles, we activate the awareness of our body as a house that houses our stories, emotions and patterns. Through dance we access pleasure and joy in movement, and let the vital energy flow through the body, from the inside out.
Anyone can participate in the classes, regardless of gender, age or previous experience with movement practices.”

Luiza Cascon

Forum Dança | Workshop Intensivo de Klein Technique™, com Susan Klein e Fabio Tavares

Workshop with Susan Klein
Klein Technique™

in collaboration with Fabio Tavares

Estúdios Victor Córdon, Lisbon | Portugal
26 to 30 of September 2022 | 12h00 – 17h00

“In this very special 5-hour workshop in Klein Technique™, Susan Klein (USA) and Fabio Tavares (USA/Brazil) will co-teach this workshop focusing on both the theory and practice of Klein Technique™. Susan will start each day with some movement and then focus on a unique theoretical principle of Klein Technique™ each day. After a break, Fabio will teach a full Stretch and Placement Class. During the classes there will be plenty of time for questions and individual attention.

 

This workshop will emphasize the pivotal principle of Klein Technique™, the concept of moving from our deepest structural and energetic tissue, the bone, the connections at the level of the bones and how the body coordinates to improve movement and reduce and heal injuries.

 

Through an interweaving of theory and practice we will work on the muscles of deep postural support: the psoas, the hamstrings, the pelvic floor muscles, and the external rotators. We will work with a body-felt understanding of how these muscles bring the bones into alignment, a place of connectedness, which leads to true power and efficiency of movement. Klein Technique™ is a process-oriented practice of great value to people of all proficiency levels, dancers, and non-dancers alike. Our goal is to teach movement from the individual perspective of internal knowing and understanding. Students of all levels of practice in Klein Technique™ will gain insight into their movement patterns and habits and gain a greater internal understanding of their bodies.

 

All are welcome. Come! Breathe, Stretch, and Connect with us!!”
