Athens & Epidaurus Festival
Onassis AiR Collaboration
Greece’s foremost cultural festival and one of the oldest performing arts festivals in Europe (1955), the Athens & Epidaurus Festival each year presents numerous theater, dance, and music artists, acclaimed in Greece and worldwide, attracting large audiences from around the world.
In Spring 2019, Αthens Festival collaborates with Onassis ΑiR to design and facilitate a cycle of professional development workshop sessions aimed at commissioned artists whose projects (performance, concert, or performative exhibition) are presented during the official program of the 2019 Αthens & Epidaurus Festival. Selected artists whose current work or interests are grounded in interdisciplinary practices, are invited to participate in a series of intensive workshops, custom-made in format and approach, that focus on the development of their projects. Examining every artistic work from different perspectives (dramaturgy, curation and production) the goal is to dissect each work, and to find ways to make them more precise, more feasible, more contextual and more direct.
