plus Oct, 24Nov, 25 2019

To celebrate 50 years since its foundation, the Intercultural Institute of Comparative Music Studies (IISMC) continues its 2019 programme with a series of autumn events devoted to contemporary and traditional dance in Indonesia, South Korea and Japan.

Thanks to close collaboration with Ca’ Foscari University of Venice, the Teatro Stabile del Veneto and major Asian cultural institutions, such as the ARKO-Art Council Korea and the Japan Foundation, for October and November the IISMC has organised a series of dance events to explore the very rich, complex universe of performing arts in these three Far Eastern countries, the subject of research in the Institute for many years. The performances, shows, lectures and films at the Fondazione Giorgio Cini and in other venues in the city will focus on cross-cultural themes. Tradition and modernity, legacy and rebellion, male and female, nature and nurture, and the symbolism of colour and movement are just some of the themes intermeshed with the versatility typical of Eastern cultures.
