Five teenage curators from Latvia with the support of the EEA grant in April 2023 will go to Trondheim, Norway, where from April 26 to 29, the International Art Festival “Bastard”<\/a>, created in cooperation with Norwegian teenagers and the “Rosendal Teater” team will take place. The festival every year introduces Trondheim’s public to the freshest contemporary performing art, involving the local community in experimental art events.<\/p>\n

The festival program created by a group of teenage curators includes the installation “The Inflatable Museum”<\/a> by the Danish artist Pelle Brages, which is dedicated to the idea that there is too little humor and too much hierarchy in the art world, the musical project “Ladies”<\/a> by the Lithuanian artist Lina Lapelyt\u0117, in which kankle players with 30 years experience on stage will offer listeners a perfectly synchronized and monotonous concert of a traditional instrument. The programme will be complemented by a performance and parties<\/a> by a queer death metal band of Sami origin, Nagir\u010dalmmiid. Representing Latvia \u2013 J\u0101nis Balodis (Latvia) and Nahuel Cano (Argentina) show “The Last Night of the Deer”<\/a> will travel to Trondheim, which takes the audience with them into a snowstorm, memories and away from an anthropocentric vision of the world. The performance will be shown again in Riga on April 23 at 18.00 at the cultural center of the Latvian Association of the Deaf “R\u012btausma”. Tickets can be purchased here<\/a>. In their curating style, the new curators try to follow the principle of decentralization. Avoiding the official conference format, they want to give the audience the opportunity to meet the artists in a more personal atmosphere after the performances. Thinking about the audience with a wide variety of needs, the festival organizers have ensured the availability of anti-stress fidgets for people who experience anxiety in social situations.<\/p>\n

The new curators from Latvia and Norway – Ikars Gra\u017edanovi\u010ds, Estere Dimitere, Samuels Ozoli\u0146\u0161, Alberts Roze, Karu Treij, Annie Strand M\u00f8lster, Margit Adde, Nikolai Furseth Rushfeldt, Hedda Osmo Rohde and Zahida Kardou – in September 2022 created a three-day program in Riga called “The Shake Down” at the International Festival of Contemporary Theatre “Homo Novus”. Since the beginning of 2022, they have all been participating in the curatorial training project “The Shake Down”, which is organized by the New Theatre Institute of Latvia in cooperation with the Norwegian partners \u2013 “Rosendal Teater” with the aim of giving teenagers their own platform for organizing the cultural life of the city according to their own rules.<\/p>\n
