man.in.fest will take place between the 19th and 26 October 2008 in Cluj-Napoca (in Transylvania region of Romania), organized by Teatrul Imposibil (The Impossible Theatre) an independent Cultural Association located in Cluj-Napoca.
MAN.In.FEST is an event addressing young people (15-45), artists and public, both from Romania and abroad, interested in new/experimental arts and media, as they are the ones whose new perception needs and social references are served by the experimental artistic field. Also, either as public or as artists they need this kind of collaborative activities in order to have access to different perspectives on the cultural, political and social issues, through art. The participants will be “cultural ambassadors” of their countries, and will have the opportunity to represent their national cultural specificity. In the same time the event will offer them the time and the place to exchange experiences and points of view and to work in unfamiliar media, in order to challenge their creativity and to discover other perspectives, as a result of our across borders intercultural approach
MAN.In.FEST is the first cultural opportunity in Romania that is interested in East-West collaboration in European and world wide experimental theatre and it’s social impact. The main focus is for Romanian artists and public to relate to contemporary breakthroughs in performance arts (implementation of new media and technology, aesthetic tendencies, new artistic languages) by direct contact. They will be able to see many top productions produced by independent companies from abroad and participate to art and media workshops, meetings and debates with/between creators for exchange of experience etc. These activities can fill in the lack of information and contacts, and the need for a stable meeting point for this artistic and social target group, as it can influence Romanian strategies to break it’s cultural isolation in independent artistic field. This intercultural competence and cross-border collaboration activities are also important for our foreign participants, as they have the opportunity to enlarge their competence and their appetite for intercultural artistic and social activities.
The Performance
It is essential for the show to be experimental, non-conventional in form and spirit.
Very particular attention should be made to ensure that the show is easy to understand despite foreign language barriers.
Thus we encourage new technologies and marginal arts, non-verbal and body language, mime works and large use of music and dance.
