KunstenFESTIVALdes Arts Festival. 7 – 29 May 2010
The Brussels KunstenFESTIVALdes Arts Festival featuring performing and visual art events is dedicated to new points of vantage from which to view both art and the world. KunstenFESTIVALdes Arts is keen to open its doors to experiments and innovations, to new works - some of which are born in situ, right there at the festival.
KunstenFESTIVALdes Arts positions itself as an open and cosmopolitan festival, taking over dozens of theatre houses and art venues for the duration of three weeks. While it advocates permeability of language and culture borders, the festival is largely focusing on the Flemish and French-speaking theatre, presenting one of the best opportunities to catch up with the best productions created in the French and Flemish theatre territory.
Importantly, the Brussels KunstenFESTIVALdes Arts is aimed at a spectator who loves challenges - to his/her intellect, viewing experience, perception. It is exactly this kind of works that comprise the festival programme.
Alongside projects by young and practically unknown artists, the festival features completely new works created by some of the greats of the performing arts world.
Don't miss the latest pieces by two of the most powerful transgressors of established borders in the European performing arts: The Thrill of It All, a performance by the British ensemble Forced Entertainment (the festival will see the world premiere of the production) and Via Intolleranza, a project created by the German action artist, film, theatre and opera director Christoph Schlingensief especially for the Brussels festival. Working in Brussels for the first time, Christoph Schlingensief has arrived accompanied by twenty African dancers and musicians to stage Luigi Nono's Intolleranza 1960 opera.
