Conference
The Silesian Dance Theatre organizes Annual International Contemporary Dance Conference and Performance Festival to strengthen the contemporary dance community in Poland stressing the intrinsic democratic values of dance. Programs and performances of the Conference/Festival are designed with the intention of encouraging Polish dancers to build their own forms of expression by respecting and culling movement from personal influences: national traditions, mentality, geopolitical setting, historical and contemporary issues, etc. The Conference/Festival structure is meant to give and strengthen personal facilities creating possibilities for the development of independent choreographers and companies; to build communication between members of local and international communities through the arts; to expose the values of the arts which are advantageous for the future development of economy and democracy in the country. The Conference/Festival, gathering the national community and inviting international colleagues to come and interact to share ideas, cultures and experiences, has become the national meeting place which represents the culmination of the past seasons educational and creative efforts as well as a glimpse at the many possibilities of a future.
This year 17th Annual International Contemporary Dance Conference and Performance Festival starts June 27th, ends July 10th 2010.
