It is the fourth edition of the symposium which specializes on the topic of today’s scenography – Where does it stand? What are the conditions and options? The aim of the discussion is to reflect on the current work from various countries. Not only to approach the works from the creative point of view, but to take the technology trends and also financial and cultural conditions in to account. The symposium is open to professional scenographers, costume / lighting / sound / video designers, theoreticians and theatre historians, students of these subject and to people of any field, who are interested in this artistic disciplines. Five foreign speakers open each thematic section and a following discussion. Part of the symposium was an evening presentation S-how & T-ell: The participants talked about their creative work in short, 7 minute long presentations (for instance 14 images and 30 seconds to describe each image). We chose presenters mainly from artistic fields, for this part of the symposium, so they can informally present their finished or unfinished scenographic works. Aim of the presentation was to get to know the works of young artists with distinctive and creative approach and unique sources of inspiration. The reason of organizing the S-how & T-ell presentation in the evening of the symposium was the attempt to actively connect the theoreticians and practitioners of theatre (mainly scenographic) arts. Other than representatives of the V4 countries and Germany, the focus was mainly set on Czech scenographers and theoreticians (professionals and students). |
