Halaqat - Exploring cultural links between Europe and the Arab world
To resist is to create!
9 artists from the Arab world and Europe - choreographers, performers and sound designers - explore with the Halaqat theme of Politics of Spaces and Bodies. With Eman Hussein, Marah Haj Hussein, Alaa Minawi, Rym Hayouni and Oussema Gaidi, Nasrine Kheltent and Abdellah M.Hassak, Mayar Alexane and Loutje Hoekstra.
Over the course of six weeks, spread over two periods, the artists are invited to Brussels to exchange, explore their body language, and perform. Their artistic proposals bring a rich range of contemporary artistic practices, and offer a new space of togetherness, where the intimate, and the political are highly interconnected. Their performances transgress the realities at the crossroads of multiple disciplines to open up new futures perspectives.
The
evening starts at 6:30 with an interactive performance by Alaa Minawi called "2048" and continues at 7:00 pm in the main hall of Théâtre Marni. The capacity is limited to 35 seats for "2048", please register online if you are interested:
