● Artists: Florentina Holzinger is a choreographer who consciously plays with the shifting boundaries between high culture and entertainment. In her works, she explores different modes of female representation. Nikola Knezevic works at the intersection between architecture and embodied practices, closely and regularly collaborating with choreographers and performance artists. ● Description: Florentina Holzinger has produced extensive and widely discussed theatre productions and works across artistic disciplines. Since 2020, Holzinger and her team have been organising experiments in public spaces, creating compositions between bodies, sound, and architecture. Under the title Études, those one-time performances take place on lakes, parking decks, streets, and public squares. Holzinger’s artistic practice brings together live musical elements, performative gestures, and stunts – an extreme form of physical activity that requires precise, technical training. For the workshop in Athens, long-time collaborator and set designer/architect Nikola Knezevic will join her. The workshop aims to expand the research and interest in skateparks and construction sites as public, interactive sculptures. *The workshop’s outcome will be presented to the public.
