The TIME, SPACE, and GESTURE in a Crossdisciplinary Context

  • Theater im Palais, University of Music and Performing Arts Graz (map)
  • Google Calendar ICS

A presentation at the Research Festival | Doctoral Forum ARTikulationen 2022, University of Music and Performing Arts Graz by Elina Akselrud, the founder and artistic director of Intertwining Arts.


One of the major factors in any performance genre is the use of time. Artists have a particular temporal perception when working alone or with collaborators within their own medium. However, the sense of the time as an artistic device might alter significantly, when the art genres are crossdisciplinarily blended and artists from various media work simultaneously on the same material in an experimental setting. The focus of this presentation is the non-verbal artistic communication that occurs between two performers during art making and how can the actions of one duo partner from a certain artistic discipline influence the decisions of the other one in another discipline, respectively.

MESSIAEN. A BIRDSOUL, FILM RELEASE

This online premiere will mark the Film Release of the 4th Intertwining Arts multidisciplinary project "Messiaen. A BIRDSOUL". It is an artistic collaboration in a theatrical setting: a combination of music, choreography/dance photo&3D projections, costume design, and stage direction. Multiple artistic elements are woven together to express a plot with a story of a young bird learning how to fly, growing and becoming mature over time, willing to take a risk in order to stay true to her aspirations.

"Ignite the Arts" Livestream from Fractured Atlas

Dear Friends,

As you know, COVID-19 has had a huge impact on the arts community. Events have been canceled, venues closed, rehearsals made virtual, and this community has joined the reigns of people who do not have an income right now.

To aid in our fundraising efforts, our fiscal sponsor, Fractured Atlas, is hosting an online benefit for their members, giving them the opportunity to showcase their art and fundraise for it.

The entire event lasts from 5pm to 8pm ET, so if you’re free and would like to see a lot of cool art, feel free to tune in for the whole event! Our artistic director Elina Akselrud and visual artist Anna Prydatko will be among the speakers at this event and they will share updates about our latest project "TRANSIENCE - painting after Scriabin and Vine". There approximate time slot to see them on the livestream is between 5:10-5:25pm ET / 23:10-23:25 pm CET.

We hope to see you there!
