opis projekata

Within the frame of TkH platform more than 20 theoretical-artistic programs and public actions have been organized: theoretical/artistic performances, installations, exhibitions, performance lectures, video films, educational-artivist projects etc. What connects most of them is re-reading various artistic disciplines (theatre, dance, opera, digital art, video), institutions (museum, gallery, university, Italian stage), and discourses (theory, dramaturgy, criticism), through the performance, as a critical practice that intervenes in the public space of the current society and culture.
