“SILK Fluegge & SILK Cie.” Online Performances 

Linz, AUSTRIA - From the submission: SILK Fluegge is an artist collective for urban contemporary dance and art. The artistic work of the collective includes performances in theatres, interventions in museums and public spaces and arts and cultural mediation. The focus lies on projects in the area of urban and contemporary dance and art, with special attention to the promotion of youth. SILK Cie. is a company for contemporary urban dance and art. The collective of artists is located at the intersection of contemporary performing art and space/design strategies. A crucial focus of the company’s work lies on the critical engagement with social phenomena, artistic paradigms and the function and situatedness of the audience.

Due to the outbreak of coronavirus, our planned performances cannot premiere this summer as planned. Our work is extremely limited. But we still want to make dance theater available for the people at home, this is why we have decided to show online screenings of various performances we did over the last years. Every Friday until Sunday, we post a link on our Facebook page, Instagram and our Homepage, making the performances available for screening. 

Here is the schedule of the planned performances:
