Fyrir nokkrum árum síðan varð myndlistarkonan Ingunn Fjóla Ingþórsdóttir vör við fjölgun flóttamanna í heimabæ sínum, Hafnarfirði. Hún tók líka eftir því að þar var fátt sem greip fólkið og ákvað að hafa frumkvæði að því að búa til vettvang þar sem fólk með ólíkan bakgrunn hefði tækifæri til þess að kynnast og taka þátt í samfélaginu. Úr varð fjölbreytt starf með reglulegum listasmiðjum, viðburðum og samverustundum og stofnun hjálparsamtakanna GETU, sem styður við flóttafólk og umsækjendur um alþjóðlega vernd í Hafnarfirði, Kópavogi og nágrenni. Hafnarborg er meðal samstarfsaðila GETU og þar verður á laugardag boðið upp á fjöltyngda listasmiðju þar sem arabísk leturtákn verða innblástur fyrir listræna sköpun, undir leiðsögn listamannanna Yöru Zein og Ingunnar Fjólu. Við lítum við á vinnustofu þeirra í hafnarfirði og heyrum af viðburðinum og samstarfinu. Sinfóníuhljómsveit unga fólksins var stofnuð fyrir 20 árum og heldur upp á það með tvennum tónleikum í Langholtskirkju um helgina. Sveitin var stofnuð um það leyti sem sett var tónlistardeild við Listaháskóla Íslands því það vantaði vettvang fyrir nemendur Gunnsteinn Ólafsson hljómsveitarstjóri er einn stofnenda hljómsveitarinnar og verður gestur okkar í þætti dagsins. Reykjavík Dance Festival lauk eftir nokkurra daga veislu síðastliðinn sunnudag. Katla Ársælsdóttir og Nína Hjálmarsdóttir fóru á nokkrar sýningar sem þær munu rýna í, í þætti dagsins og í næsta þætti. Katla ríður á vaðið í dag með umfjöllun um Konukroppa og When a duck turns 18 a boy will eat her. En við hefjum þáttinn á símtali við semballeikarann Halldór Bjarka Arnarson, sem búsettur er í Sviss, en heldur tónleika undir yfirskriftinni Tónlist fyrir okkar eirðarlausu tíma, í Breiðholtskirkju á laugardag.

Nýja íslenska bíómyndin Eftirleikir var í 8 ár í bígerð. Við hittum leikstjóra myndarinnar, sem er lýst sem ógnartrylli, Ólaf Árheim. Sviðslista- og danshátíðin Reykjavík Dance Festival er hafin. Við kíkjum í Iðnó á norska svartmetalhljómsveit, sem er að fara að troða upp í kvöld, Witch Club Satan. Brynja Hjálmsdóttir rýnir í nýja íslenska grínþætti, Útilega, sem sýndir eru á Sjónvarpi Símans.

Reykjavík Dans Festival hefst með pompi og prakt á morgun, miðvikudag, og stendur yfir fram á sunnudag. Hátíðin var stofnuð árið 2002 og hefur fyrir löngu fest sig í sessi sem einn af hápunktum menningarársins. Síðastliðin ár hefur reykjavík dance festival tengt sig við Lókal svo úr hefur orðið ein allsherjar sviðlistahátíð. Við tökum forsmekk á sæluna í þætti dagsins sem verður undirlagður undir dans. Listdans á sér rúmlega hundrað ára sögu á Íslandi, og nú gefst unnendum og áhugasömum tækifæri til að lesa um sögu danslistarinnar í glænýrri og veglegri bók sem ber titilinn Listdans á Íslandi. Þar rekur Ingibjörg Björnsdóttir, dansari, danshöfundur og sagnfræðingur, sögu þeirra sem ruddu braut listdansins hér á landi á síðustu öld og segir frá stofnun og starfsemi Listdansskóla Þjóðleikhússins. Saga Íslenska dansflokksins, barátta hans, andstreymi og sigrar, er síðan meginefni bókarinnar. Ingibjörg segir söguna af innsæi og þekkingu, enda sjálf þátttakandi í sögu danslistar á Íslandi í sjötíu ár, og hún lítur við í hljóðstofu í lok þáttar. Við hugum líka að tveimur nýjum dansverkum sem frumsýnd verða á hátíðinni, When a duck turns 18 a boy will eat her, eftir Birtu Ásmundsdóttur og Eitthvað um skýin, eftir Ólöfu Ingólfsdóttur. Birta rannsakar mörk kvenleikans með hjálp anda. Hugmyndin kviknaði í París, þar sem Birta, á ferð sinni ein um götur borgarinnar, upplifði hvernig karlmenn horfðu á hana á annan hátt en á Íslandi, og hvað það gat verið þreytandi. Í verkinu Eitthvað um skýin veltir Ólöf Ingólfsdóttir fyrir sér eðli og fjölbreytileika tilfinninga, sem svífa um vitundina og eins og ský yfir himininn. Verkið fléttar saman barokksöng og samtímadansi og markmiðið er að sögn höfundar að heiðra tilfinningar í öllum sínum myndum. Umsjón: Halla Harðardóttir og Melkorka Ólafsdóttir

The World of Music, Arts and Dance Festival has all the ingredients for a good time – food, dancing, arts, and an incredible line-up of local and international artists. English/Kiwi rock band The Veils were announced this week in the first line-up of acts to headline next year's WOMAD festival. The enigmatic indie band have a reputation for their intense live performances, and they'll be teaming up with a few classical musicians for their performance at the festival. Frontman Finn Andrews told Jack Tame that it'll be a “pretty raucous affair”. He said that working with classical musicians gives them the option to lean into the extremes. “It kinda just intensifies that even more. I think it's gonna be really full on and really quiet and intimate as well.” LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

jess pretty is an Assistant Professor of Dance at the University of Minnesota Twin Cities and the current artistic director of AUNTS; a punk/DIY performance series that hosts events/festivals/shows to highlight the works of experimental dance makers in NYC. she has shown her work at La Mama Experimental Theater Club (2017 La Mama Moves Festival), New York Live Arts (as a 2016/17 Fresh Tracks artist), CATCH!, Gibney Dance Center, Brooklyn Studios for Dance, the CURRENT SESSIONS, panoply performing arts space, Green Street Studios, three ACDA conferences, and the Chocolate Factory Theatre. pretty has been an artist in residence at Kent State (2017), the Chocolate Factory Theatre, and the Center for Performance Research (2019-2020) and was also a 2020 member of the Queer Art Fellowship. pretty has collaborated and been a part of the works of: Will Rawls, Claudia Rankine, Kevin Beasley, Okwui Okpokwasili, Peter Born, Catherine Gallasso, David Thomson, Katie Workum, Niall Jones, Jennifer Monson, Cynthia Oliver, Leslie Cuyjet and Dianne McIntyre. call and response is a methodology for building connection and community; a celebration and appreciation for black life; an archival tool; and lens for embodiment. this work is personal and archival; calling on me to turn towards my own story, lineage and memory as the site of choreographic creation. in looking at myself, i aim to build a black queer archive to provide proof of life (instead of the constant images of black death we experience) for future generations. how do we come together? how do we see each other? how do we care for each other? how do we make space for pleasure, joy, ease and non-urgency? how do we 'get free' using the body as the site for radical transformation? taking place somewhere between an improvised self portrait and the middle of the dance floor, call and response directs our attention inward to the deep histories our bodies hold. calling us to say ‘yes' to "the encounter”, to vulnerability, to the collective, to the moving body, to change and to transformation.

Inspired by the creative and amorous relationship between Merce Cunningham and John Cage, Instagram thirst traps, speculative masculinities, and romance novel tropes, Koepke, Olk, and their collaborators interrogate what devotion and commitment to love, longing, and process can look like when you make room for more than two.

She is co-artistic director of Time Track Productions.APRIL 25-27, 2024 CBDF Featured Artist Work:NothingA trio: performed by myself, Leila Awadallah and Roxane Wallace. We question and  interrogate our understandings of our realities through movement. Building a focused movement vocabulary since November 2022, we are intent on shifting the structure of the movement and its qualities, hoping to convey that assumed constructs of our perceptions might not be truth. Imagery projected onto our bodies at the end of this section (part one), will contrast speed, timing and content. The meaning of those images and their relationship between the movement and the piece will amplify and articulate our physical vocabulary. Our movement/physical vocabularies will reflect our formative perspectives and perceptions -- the realities we grew into. Ranging from black and white broadcast for the oldest of us, to online mobile devices for the youngest, the streams of our understanding begin here. Sound score by Tarek AbdelqaderThis is part (one) of the trilogy and will be performed at The Candy Box Festival in April 2024 at The Southern Theater in Minneapolis. Everything and Nothing is a three-part series of dance performances, each 25 minutes in length, that will be performed over a two-year period in venues throughout Minneapolis/St Paul Minnesota. In 2026, all three parts will be performed together as an evening-length work.

more:fluentfiction.org/the-journey-of-the-wrong-tram-uncovering-the-magic-of-budapests-folk-dance-festival Story Transcript:Hu: József valójában nem is szeretett utazni.En: József never actually liked traveling.Hu: Szeretett a tuti, a megszokott dolgokban hinni.En: He preferred believing in the secure and familiar things.Hu: Az otthona, a munkahelye és a két hely közötti 47-es villamos megszokott és rutin lett számára.En: His home, his workplace, and the 47 tram between the two became familiar and routine for him.Hu: Azon a napon azonban József rossz villamosra szállt.En: However, on that day, József boarded the wrong tram.Hu: A Dózsa György úton kacskaringózó 14-esen találta magát.En: He found himself on the 14 tram that zigzagged on Dózsa György út.Hu: Szállingózó hóban keresztül sodródtak Budapest utcáin.En: They drifted through the streets of Budapest in falling snow.Hu: A villamos a városligeti Műjég pálya megállónál állt meg.En: The tram stopped at the Műjég ice rink in Városliget.Hu: Távolról zene szólt, és áradt belőle az élet.En: Music played from afar, and life flowed from it.Hu: József érezte a ritmust, amint csöppnyi szívét belengte a pezsgő, élettel teli energia.En: József felt the rhythm as his little heart resonated with the vibrant, energetic atmosphere.Hu: Kíváncsiság hajtotta, hogy felfedje, mi rejtezik a zene forrása mögött.En: Curiosity drove him to discover what lay behind the source of the music.Hu: Belépett a városligeti Műcsarnokba, ahol a zene szólt.En: He entered the Műcsarnok in Városliget, where the music was coming from.Hu: Hatalmas hangversenyt talált, néptáncosokkal és zenészekkel.En: He found a grand concert with folk dancers and musicians.Hu: József szeme megakadt egy elfeledett délutánon a földön hagyott, hatalmas néptánc csizmán.En: József's eyes caught sight of a pair of forgotten, large folk dance boots left on the ground one afternoon.Hu: Leült a székre és kilátása nyílt az egész helyszínre.En: He sat down and had a view of the entire scene.Hu: Bámulattal nézte a néptáncosok mozgását, ahogy könnyedén léptek a parketten.En: He watched in awe as the folk dancers moved gracefully on the dance floor.Hu: A feldobott vzsgálódások közepette József meglepődve vette észre, hogy a táncmesterekől az egyik odalépett hozzá.En: In the midst of his contemplation, József was surprised to see one of the dance instructors approaching him.Hu: Felajánlotta a színpadon a főszereplő helyét.En: They offered him the leading role on stage.Hu: József nem gondolkodott sokat, felállt és a színpadon találta magát.En: József didn't think much, he stood up and found himself on stage.Hu: Először rémült volt, de aztán valami különös és ritka belső erőt érzett magában.En: At first, he was frightened, but then he felt something peculiar and rare within him.Hu: Kezeit a mellkasára tette, lábait szélesre tárta, és hozzákezdett.En: He placed his hands on his chest, spread his legs wide, and began.Hu: Nem tudta, mit csinál, de a zene hajtotta.En: He didn't know what he was doing, but the music drove him.Hu: Néptáncosok és a közönség ujjongásukkal biztatása közepette, a meghökkent József valahogy végigvitt egy hihetetlen néptáncot.En: Encouraged by the cheers of the folk dancers and the audience, the bewildered József somehow performed an incredible folk dance.Hu: A színpadon megvoltak a boldogság, a vég nélküli vidámság és az őszinte öröm pillanatai.En: On stage, he experienced moments of happiness, endless joy, and genuine delight.Hu: Mikor végül a zene elcsendesedett, József felkapott levébe esett, elgyötört, de boldog.En: When the music finally quieted down, József was breathless and exhausted but happy.Hu: A közönség hatalmas tapsviharban tört ki.En: The audience erupted in thunderous applause.Hu: Új barátai körében ünnepelték, mint a nap sztárját, akinek még néptánc lépést sem tudott.En: Among his new friends, they celebrated him as the star of the day, even though he didn't know a single folk dance step.Hu: A nap, amely úgy kezdődött, hogy József rossz villamosra szállt, zártkörű, pezsgő, ünnepi magyar néptáncfesztivállal ért véget.En: The day that started with József boarding the wrong tram ended with an exclusive, lively, festive Hungarian folk dance festival.Hu: Budapest, a város, amit korábban csak munkahelyének tekintett, most az ő színházává vált.En:
