Connect through your practice with an international group of peers from different disciplines.
The Parliament of Practices on themes of:
Speaking from Practice – Genealogies & Generations – Actions, Activism & Activism – Phronesis/What do we really know?
Dear all,
As the seasons shift, it’s clear that the globe is not yet free of the COVID-crisis, and our artistic, performative and embodied practices are still under a lot of stress because of this. Some practices seem to have almost disappeared or shrunk to the confines of our living rooms, others are struggling to survive in the hybrid digital world, or in the small pockets of proximal possibility that are left.
The Parliament of Practices offers for the second time a cycle of four online sessions. In this cycle we will continue to explore the four themes from the previous cycle. In the sessions we use (embodied) dialogue forms and interdisciplinary exchanges, and to open up the experience and knowledge of all practitioners.
As part of a Parliament tradition that brings our practices with us into the digital space, we invite you to share one minute of a personal practice.
Below you can see the schedule with the new dates. We hope to meet you in the Parliament! For more information, please contact us at mail@crosspollination.space.
Warm greetings, Marije Nie and Adriana La Selva
