welcome - 2011

The program selection of the L1danceFest 2011 is marked by the professional criteria, experimental vein and individual interest of Márta Ladjánszki – dancer, choreographer, artistic director of the festival: “This year too, I was trying to invite artists whom I know personally and whose works inspired me.” The aim of the festival is to introduce artists with a unique character, sophisticated knowledge and high level technical routine, still less or absolutely not know in Hungary to the public in Budapest (and hopefully in the future in a smaller format also in the countryside). The contemporary dance festival has been progressively developing into a more and more extensive (both in the geographical and the performing art spectrum) international review, offering performing possibilities not only to L1 association members and residency holders, but becoming one of the most important domestic platforms of presenting the works of recognized international artists. Each performance is of a crossover genre, though each has movement as its focus.

Participating countries: Czech Republic, Slovakia, Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Catalonia, Hungary!

Special focus on Poland!
