Exhibition spaces
In our exhibition we use unconventional spaces to bring art in the center of our daily lives. We use the foyer of our theater hall, old containments, the yurte and the space in front of the sanitary rooms. In this way we want to make art accessible to everyone and go beyond the walls of the museum and the institutional theater; we want to place them in relation to the space that we animate. In every other festival we decide which of the spaces exactly will be available in that edition.
