PRØVEROMMET
MAY 2017
Prøverommet is a nomadic show that moves between different premises, galleries and institutions in Bergen. Every night is unique and one night only! Here artists and other cultural enthusiasts gather to present, experience and explore visual arts, music, performance, theater, film, dance, sculpture, installation and reading with and for the public.
For this show, Prøverommet aims to create spaces that cross boundaries and artistic disciplines with 11 artists participating in the event, working site specific with their own discipline.
The project is based on dance artist Lisa Colette Bysheim´s project «Ekko». The choreography of Ekko is continually evolving and is adapted to new spaces and contexts. The participating artists are invited to explore what echo is in the body, time and space. The intention is to use the concept as starting point to create new material: versions, interpretations and reflections that have the same core. A part of the project is to work with ekko as a starting point, a journey and a word that has a variety of dimensions that can be explored. We wish to create an event that is accessible for anyone to experience.
