ÁDÁM ANNA

INTERDISCIPLINARY workshops

​Since 2014, Anna Ádám leads regularly workshops, trainings, experimental JAM sessions, creates interdisciplinary spaces for generating new ideas, forms, and aesthetics. Her methodology is inspired by two pioneers in the field of education: the Bauhaus ideology, and by postmodern choreographers working practices, based on collective creativity and movement-based process.

Historically, in the frame of the experimental "Stage workshop", the Bauhaus School was the first official artistic institution teaching performance as an individual art form, different from traditional theater and dance practices. Oriented both theory and practice, Oskar Schlemmer's class was based on design, play, instinct, and imaginative use of masks and costumes. The body was the central material to try out new forms of movements, in connection to character, lights, texts, and sounds.

On the other hand, in 1968, landscape architect Lawrence Halprin and avant-garde dancer Anna Halprin, conducted the "Experiments in Environment" workshop, devoted to the "ongoingness of collective creativity." The workshop entailed a range of movement, communication, and notation exercises, designed to pursue “ways of learning through exploration and direct experience.” It was also a testing ground for the RSVP Cycles, method for combining Resources, Scores, Valuaction, and Performance as tools for collective creativity.
​
Anna Ádám's methodology completes with contemporary visual arts and performance practices the pedagogical heritage of two pioneers in the field of education: the Bauhaus ideology about interdisciplinarity, and American postmodern choreographers working practices, based on collective creativity and movement-based process. During the workshops, participants use costumes, masks, accessories in experimental, movement-oriented, improvisation exercises, create solo and group performances, develop critical thinking, creativity, and collaboration.

​Theoretical, practical, and interdisciplinary at the same time, each workshop focus on a particular issue, and new topics can also be created according to the context in which the workshop takes place.
​Past topics:
- Body, identity, society (gender stereotypes, social norms, women empowerment, the queer body...)
- The Public/Private, Intimate/Shared experience
- Interactive and Performative Systems
- Forms of movement, mobility, migration
- Choreographic poetry: performing text & words
