Showcase

the approaching edition of Malá inventura centres on denudation

to denudate means to make something uncovered
to strip off the protective layer
to peel off, disclose, reveal
to expose oneself, take a risk, take a chance

in this year´s productions, performances, and other performative forms, a denudation appears in many shapes

as an audacious disclosure of what could be of concern to us
as a direct confrontation with what shall be seen clearly and unobstructed
as a liberating gesture able to shake off the vast accumulation of everything that has so far weighed us down, that has prevented us from observing acutely

the mechanism of theatre is being exposed
it is revealed what constitutes a work of art /how work of art is created
the system of theatre is subjected to a commentary,
examination, reflection, revision

selected theatre forms reveal what lies beneath the facade
uncovering the structures of thinking
exposing the norms that determine our reality
they perform processes of erosion — surfaces are disrupted, they disappear, crack

and beneath it all, a previously hidden image, slowly revealed, shines through

we wish to see more
what shapes us
the tissues, bones, organs of society
the dark corners of humanity
flashes of otherworldly beauty
touch, silence, closeness
as well as decibels – energy in its bare, complete, consuming form
