WELCOME to 5th HKICF
第5屆香港國際編舞節
During the HKICF festival and residency HKICAROS we will support and guide you to present your work as well as research and develop new productions. We are here to bring to the world unique new dance productions created by local and international artists.
Welcome to the 5th Hong Kong International Choreography Festival (HKICF).
Our mission is to create and offer to the public and all artists a dance and choreography festival for cultural exchange, cutting edge innovation and creativity, risk taking, sustainability and most importantly personal growth.
The HKICF festival is not only a festival to present dance, it is a festival that guides new generations to research and develop new dance productions created collectively by the resident artists during the HKICAROS residency.
We focus on three strands:
1) Dance Companies
2) Choreographers & Teachers
3) Resident Artists
The HKICF takes place after four-week long collective artists in residency HKICAROS. Artists from across the world are meeting and collectively research and develop to create and present new productions. The artists can work on their own solo work or collaborate with other resident artists or local Hong Kong dance artists, as well as they can be part in the projects of other artists. It is a collective artists in residency where creativity in dance and choreography flourishes.
Our vision is to heighten and foster the ultimate understanding that we are all here in this world to connect and communicate for learning and growing.
HKICF is leading the way for challenging and questioning the dance and choreography practice nowadays, and how this can have a positive impact in the world.
5th HKICF coming up 14-18 JUNE 202
Applications open: [email protected]
For this 5th edition, the guest artists as well as HKICAROS resident artists will be presenting their work related to the theme “IDENTITY”. Don’t miss this special evenings to experience their cutting edge performances!
We are happy to announce that we have created a strong partnership with Le French May (www.frenchmay.com), one of the biggest cultural events in Asia; HKICF is an associate festival partner and will co-create an influential and established multi-cultural performance art event in Asia.
由合一空間(Unity Space)主辦的「香港國際編舞節」 (Hong Kong International Choreography Festival, HKICF),今年已經踏入第五年。 當中《伊卡洛斯駐場計劃》(Hong Kong International Collective Artists in Residency for Opportunities and Sustainability, HKICAROS)也已經在5月展開, 演出部分則安排了於6月三天一如既往在上環文娛中心劇院進行。
編舞節的藝術總監梵天與(Vangelis Legakis)經過多年的研究探問,以東西方哲學共融的理念,成立了合一空間,與藝術家分享經驗,並提供一個文化交流的平台,讓不同文化、種族、信仰及年齡的藝術家,在舞蹈下無分彼此去尋求嶄新突破,啟發創意並敢於冒險,強調可持續性,鼓勵個人成長。 梵指出,策劃駐場計劃是希望創造一個環境,不只是支持與協助他們編創舞作,也希望他們能夠有所感,而不單單倚賴思考想像。尤其是在節奏急速的當代社會,能夠打開心靈,透過冥想、正念、氣功等內觀方法,「用思想去感受,以心作思考」,才可達到身心平衡,有利發展。因此藝術家們在駐留期間,每天早上也會有專業課堂,大家就如一同在舞團內工作;而逢週四傍晚,也會圍圈討論,與本地社群溝通、交流,互相聆聽,並且會安排資深老師為大家授課。同時,主辦單位還加入東方哲學、能量運用,以至治癒方式等元素,刺激藝術家們從不同角度去思考與感受。
