MODINA Seminar 2025 - Kino Šiška - Lecture by Igor Štromajer and Jan Rozman

Описание: With this year’s edition of CoFestival, as part of the Modina project, we continue the morning seminar session by presenting local examples from the field of contemporary dance and performance where these practices meet technological tools. Last year, in this context, we hosted the Kapelica Gallery, which for three decades has focused its curatorial practices on the intersections between performance, body art, (bio)technology, and science.

This year, we are featuring contemporary artist Igor Štromajer, notable for his contributions to contemporary performing arts and the pioneering use of technological tools in his works during the late eighties and nineties. Eda Čufer considers him a part of the so-called third generation of theatre directors that were decisively marked by the avant-garde movements of the twentieth century.

In the second part, we will focus on the work of choreographer, dancer, and performer Jan Rozman. Rozman combines technological and media content with choreographic work and procedures. We will focus on the works MEMEMEME (2019), (╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻ screamage (2023), which we hosted at CoFestival last year, and the recent work Wetware (2025), with which Jan Rozman concludes his series on the materialisation of digital landscapes.

The presentations and discussion will be moderated by Rok Vevar.
