After each lecture performance the subject in hand will be further explored through a brief group conversation in which audience members are welcome to put their observations, thoughts and questions to the presenting artists.

The model was developed by Antonio de la Fe and its frame of work revolves around a basic question: “what does to perform entail?” OPENLAB sessions are fluid: always changing, always open to dialogue within the group. These sessions are carried out by a constantly changing group of people and any person can join in at any time. |
