In the Making #5: Barbro Scholz and Li Lorian, Experiencing Text and Textile. In
this session researchers Barbro Scholz and Li Lorian ask the following
questions: How does light feel on the body? What sort of togetherness is there
in reading text?
They will explore tangible and intangible experiences of voice and textile
light. In their practice, both artists are interested in ways of communicating
aesthetic experience. Procedures of documentation and transmission bring up
questions concerning audience, spectatorship and participation in the art field
and artistic research. We aim to open up for participative thinking and valuing
aesthetic and experiential knowledge of ourselves and others.
Artist and designer Barbro Scholz deals with experiential qualities of tangible
(textiles) and intangible (light) materials, and how their interplay invites for
novel forms of performativity.
Performer and artist Li Lorian is interested in practices of reading text, to
oneself and outloud, voicing and finding new means of commonality. Both of them
have an interest in movement, affect, and entanglement to be investigated in a
playful, participatory, collaborative research. This session is a great
opportunity for them to find ways to share their yet unformulated thoughts in an
experiential method with an audience.

IN THE MAKING
The Academy of Creative and Performing Arts (ACPA) of Leiden University and Art
Institute West Den Haag are pleased to announce their close collaboration in the
new public series ‘In the Making’. In six public sessions they will present to
the public different practices of research in the arts.
Artistic production has always expressed the forms in which we know, explore,
and sense the world we live in. The current practice of research in the arts
consciously assumes this exploration. In the past decades the focus on research
in the domain of the arts has grown – as well as its role in universities and
other research contexts – expressing its engagement with the realities of the
world at large.
‘In The Making’ will address how artists conduct their research. Guest artist
researchers and artist researchers from Leiden University will present their
projects, approaches to research, methods and results. Each session will address
questions inherent to these projects. ‘In The Making’ aims to deepen a
perspective which conceives of artistic practice not as the sole product of
individual visionaries but as a collective endeavor embedded in society. It
addresses the role of art in the construction of the present and the creation of
possible futures.

Suggested events
Join us at 1646 for an exhibition that examines the hidden powers that rule many
parts of our lives.
Financial power is a concept that becomes more intangible with each attempt to
understand it, often hiding itself in tall buildings. Through extensive research
on the development of global capitalism, stock markets and big corporations,
artist/filmmaker Bob Demper tries to understand the impact it has on our
existence. Demper looks at how the risk taken by the corporate world is almost
always a public risk, and how this relentless pursuit of growth has resulted in
polarisation, confusion and a lack of understanding of what’s governing our
everyday life.
At 1646, the audience can walk through carefully crafted film sets. Spaces that
make us feel the tension between these opaque financial worlds and our private
space, where we find ourselves on the edge of dreams and reality.

STORM is een achtbaan van dans en muziek: van gedragen beweging, iconische
gebaren en rituele precisie tot ingehouden en directe emoties uitgevoerd door
een jonge cast van zes dansers en musici David Kweksilber op (bas)klarinet,
David Mackor op theorbe en Dominique Chabot op contrabas. De jonge modeontwerper
Carlijn Veurink voegt daar met haar autonome sculpturale kostuums een laag aan
toe.
STORM klinkt dreigend, maar dans en muziek zijn intiem, als een bezwering van de
storm. Klank en beweging roepen een echo op van oude Griekse volksfeesten,
afwisselend ritueel en emotioneel.
Elementen als cirkelbewegingen, ingehouden energie als stilte voor de storm en
het passionele van de Griekse dans en muziek vormen de basis. Die echo wint aan
momentum door de gezamenlijke nieuwe ordeningsprincipes waarmee Calliope
Tsoupaki en LeineRoebana dans en muziek doen versmelten.
LeineRoebana staat bekend om haar cross-disciplinaire producties waarin dans en
muziek samensmelten tot één geheel. Calliope Tsoupaki laat zich in haar werk
beïnvloeden door zowel oude als hedendaagse muziek; Westerse
compositietechnieken en de traditionele klanken uit Griekenland en het
Midden-Oosten. Haar muziek kenmerkt zich door haar melodische karakter, warm
geluid en emotionele kwaliteit.

In the Making #6: Anna Scott, Jed Wentz, Laila Neumann, Emma Williams
Art Without Soul? Embodiment and Historical Performance
Modern performance critics often scorn nineteenth-century actors and musicians,
assuming that because they placed emphasis on exaggerated shapes and gestures
they were merely showboating — engaging in empty posturing — rather than
performing from the soul. Treatises of the period, however, suggest that this
visual and sonic hyper-physicality was the means by which these performers
generated, channeled, and communicated emotion; that they understood their art
as originating not from the soul but from the body. Engaging with these
practices today, therefore, is a necessarily embodied rather than abstract,
intellectual endeavor; one that handles the performing body (both past and
present) as a rich, creative resource rather than a soulless distraction.
