DANCE PHOTOGRAPHY >> photo exhibition, entrance 3rd floor

Although they cover the most recent 3 years of performances and choreographic programs hosted by CNDB, the photographs gathered in this exhibition are not intended to document this period thoroughly. Rather, they are slivers of time when the movement of a body met with a conscious push of a button, thus tricking the transient and unstable nature of dance. They are an exploration of what would be un-seeable to an attentive eye – that chain of precise and meaningful moments, which, in a whole, create movement. Moments in time which, put together, do not add up to more than half a second out of these 3 years.

trenSformers days >> December 6 to 12th, Mediatheque

trenSformers is a project of artistic investigation and intervention in trains and train stations, aiming to discover actively and creatively regional differences, by challenging the mechanisms of social perception. The project functioned as a spontaneous intervention among the occasional train riders.
Following the experience accumulated this summer, the trenSformers team proposes a series of events between the 6th and 12th of December at the National Dance Center Bucharest (the Mediatheque).
