a.pass is a one year artistic research program open to artists and theoreticians with an interest in exploring the performative and/or spatial dimensions of their practice.
If
you are working in the performing arts and you want to develop an artistic research project in a professional collaborative environment,
Or
if you come from another field and the concepts of performativity or/and scenography are (relatively) new to you but you want to explore them in depth, in relation to your own practice
Then
a.pass (advanced performance and scenography studies) can offer you a one year post-master program in which you develop your research project. In a context of self-education and collaboration you create a personal trajectory through workshops, individual mentoring and interaction with the other participants. At the end of this period, you present and communicate your research.
Beside
the post-master programs, a.pass also invites artists and theoreticians—possibly engaged in a PhD in the Arts—to develop independent artistic and trans-disciplinary projects producing knowledge and tools relating to the key issues of the a.pass program.
The a.pass research program offers you the possibility to develop your skills as an independent and critical researcher. The curriculum is organized on the basis of self-organization and group communication, and can be assembled according to your individual questions and needs. Participants of a.pass manage their own research in continuous interaction with the other participants, and in dialogue with a various group of group and personal mentors.
The 12 month a.pass program is made up of three blocks of four months. The first three months of each block take place within the organized collective research environment. Key elements of the program are workshops (organized in response to the needs of the individual and collective project), mentoring sessions, individual working time and presentations of the individual projects, discussion, etc… Every 3 month block starts and ends with a collective working week. The fourth month of each block is organized on an individual basis.
