TeaterKUNST
TeaterKUNST was founded in 2004 as artistic platform that pushes the established conventions around the theater by creating unconventional, site-specific projects that treat issues like, diversity, identity and the relationship between minority and majority in cooperation with a cultural and artistic diverse crowd of professional performers.
TeaterKUNST co-founded the transnational artistic research platform @work network in 2005 with members from 8 different European countries working with theatres and artists from many different Cities around the globe and has been presented in Berlin, Vilnius, Stockholm, Helsinki, Athens, Durban, Mozambique, Lusaka, São Paulo, Montreal and many other places in the world.
TeaterKUNST creates theatre projects challenging the existing boundaries of the theatre by adopting and exploring spaces. We address contemporary dilemmas and question the role the audience play in theater and public spaces whit projects like on the youth productions “ Facebus” “What is Danish”? recently “DRINK ME”.
TeaterKUNST vision
To stimulate conscious decision making by exploring new reality perspectives through site-specific dialogue and theatre art.
• Breaking the conventional spaces and performances
• Nudging debate and dialogue about identity through a language accessible for everybody
• Facilitating meetings to increase comprehension and tolerance among humans
The Brazilian poet, Oswald de Andrade, wrote in 1928 "the anthropophagia manifesto", which is a philosophical way of thinking about how we include the foreign and unknown to become part of ourselves.
TeaterKUNST has Since 2008, brought this method to the theater to ask questions about concepts of normality in our society and create interaction with the audience in a performative way.
TeaterKUNST have created performances engaging the audience gently since 2004 –
