Fičo LAB/ 2014/2015; Fičo community

 Dervish in progress / process group 2014-2015; Ziya Azazi (tr)

Set of weekend workshop through 2014 and 2015.

 

Participants of the workshop with a master of Sufi dance, will be able to test their body limits by practicing dance whirls, increase their capabilities in using their body energy economically and optimise their movement through the awareness of applying their motoric capabilities.

 

The main aim of the workshop is not whirling; rather, it is to improve the individual's physical, emotional and spiritual awareness through whirling. The latter guides the participants to perceive and accept everything that they receive through whirling, and thereby their own innovative movement.

 Dances of G. I. Gurdjeff-a and  Where is my attention now?  / process group 2014/2015; Miloš Kecman

Set of weekend workshop through 2014 and 2015.

 

To help their pupils to answer this question, George Ivanovich Gurdjieff created a series of movements and dances that bring us the means to develop our attention and our consciousness and closer contact with our bodies, our emotions and our thoughts. Consequently, this has a direct and beneficial impact on our ability to be relaxed and focused and in general - to our lives. Improving awareness of the body. To be centered. 


The balance between attention and relaxation. The balance between effort and susceptibility. Awareness of our inner space and outer world.

 Presence (prisotnost) happening 2014; Goran Bogdanovski & Fičo Community


Happening is a performance, event or situation and it is considered an art, usually in a field of Performing Arts. Happening is an event with multi-disciplinary, non-linear narrative and the active participation of the audience. Key elements of happening are planned, but artists and participants retain space for improvisation. This aspect of happening eliminates the boundaries between the artwork and its viewers.

 Improvisation as Art of co-living / process group 2013/2014; Dejan Srhoj

How to listen to others, to respond and at the same time takeing care of own needs? How to dance your dance and to be part of a group? How to create a community based on awareness, observation, initiative, reacting, listening, attention, leting go?

 

Through warm ups named "learning without a teacher" and in-depth research tools for solo and groups improvisations in the dance studio, we studied forms of co-living during the entire season. 

 Fičo drama / process group 2011-2013;  Tomi Janežič

Fičo drama is self-understanding and exploring own creative potential through the acting.

Fičo drama is the synthesis of various acting techniques and imaginations techniques. Actiing can be understood as part of the theater and film, but it also recognizes the role in everyday life and in the heart of every artistic and non-artistic creation, in the therapy with acting (psychodrama), spiritual practices etc.

FičoDROM / dance partying 2012/2014; Fičo Community

FičoDROM is a platform for experimentation in dance,

music and visuals, opening up the space to various exhibitions, performances, installations, projections and artistic practices, which we still have no name for.

SOLO IMPRO / process group 2012/2013; Dejan Srhoj

Dance training and in-depth research tools for solo improvisation.

It is designed as a continuous artistic process, the main focus is on the study of improvisation as a performative practice.

Searching answers to questions such as: What I'm communicating when I dance? How do I feel? Who is the audience? Where? Where is my hand? How to improvise while realizing where I am, what I do? How to dance to what is important to me? Forget all the questions and to let go.

 

 Fičo CONTACT / process group 2011/2012; Dejan Srhoj

Contact Improvisation is a dance technique in which physical contact between two people is the starting point for exploration of dance. Weight transfer, release, contact point, thinking body dynamics, power, unpredictability and dialogue were the common concepts with which we faced. In addition to practical work, we reserached contact improvisation through watching videos, reading texts, conversations and jam sessions.

 TRG (square) / site specific performance - project group 2010/2011; Goran Bogdanovski

Based on The Hour We Knew Nothing of Each Other by Peter Handke.

»All the happening is taking place at a square. A town square or a ''square'' in our inner selves. People are walking through the square, and that is all. There is nothing behind it, no higher purpose. The square represents "point zero", where one individual becomes clearer through another. The square is the place where we can find out and see everything or rather notice nothing at all.«

Butterflies eats banana / performans 2011; Marcello Maloberti & Fičo Balet

 Charming group suicide / process group & performance  2009/2010;  Goran Bogdanovski

Charming group suicide is a humorous way of touching novel of the Finnish Arto Paasilinna, envisioned as the multitudes look at a series of questions about identities, art, personality and physical limits of individual and shared ideas and ways of being together - how to create a community. The reserach process and performance is in fact a documentary portrait of the community participants of Fičo training, their joint work and ways to extend the workshops and affecting their home and work environments.
