INSPIRING CULTURE PROGRAMME

„The „Inspiring Culture Programme" supports projects that internationally promotes Poland's rich and diverse contributions to both world culture and arts and humanities heritage by organizing events with the participation of prominent Polish artists and cultural scholars. The emphasis is on original, comprehensive, conceptually coherent tasks that will lay the groundwork for stable and long-term cooperation with prestigious cultural institutions around the world.”

As part of a Inpiring Culture Programme 2023-2024 Stefan Zeromski Theatre in Kielce is implementing a task:

Presenting the play The Horizon at the National Theatre of Iceland with additional events in cooperation with Embassy of the Republic of Poland in Iceland and National Theatre of Iceland in Reykjavik.

The presentation of the plan and additional event will take place at September 5th 2024 in the National Theatre of Iceland in Reykjavik:

The Horizon by Wiesław Myśliwski is one of the most beautiful Polish epics about village, as evidenced by the Nike Prize awarded a few years ago. It’s a subjective and in many threads autobiographical story, and at the same time and extremely beautiful testament of „that time” and „that place”. The author, looking back to the past of his relatives and his own, simultaneously shows a wider social background, which is the village and small town during the war and in the second half of the twentieth century.

Ladodeja is a performative VR installation by Oskar Sadowski, an interactive construction connecting the world of icelandic artists and neo-slavic spirit. Virtual reality, combined with sounds and dance performances will create a perfect starting point for the meeting of two diverse and unique cultures.

 

Inpiring Culture Programme 2023-2024 task was co-financed by the funds of Minister of Culture and National Heritage and the Swietokrzyskie Voivodeship
