After a long pause due to restrictions from Covid19, the journey of \u201cGenius Loci \u2013 Performing arts between heritage and future\u201d resumes with a new online formula.

This four-stage journey through the European performing arts, which started a year ago from Greece, restarts Tuesday 2 to Sunday 7 February with the international artistic residence \u2018The Demon of Love\u2019, coordinated by the State Theater of Constanta<\/strong>. Through the meeting of common artistic practices, but also of different methodologies and cultural traditions, Genius Loci aims to create innovative artistic creations and practices generated by the joint work between European artists from various countries and communities on the basis of exchange and mutual knowledge. The project, in fact, is aimed at promoting cultural cooperation and intercultural dialogue by relating artists to communities, cultural heritage to places and social contexts, through the implementation of international artistic residences in four different countries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n THE DEMON OF LOVE ARTISTIC RESIDENCE<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n coordinated by Constanta State Theatre (Romania)<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n 2 \u2013 7 FEBRUARY 2021<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n \u2013 Tuesday 2 \u2013 <\/strong>h.17:00 (CET time) \u2013 Wednesday 3 \u2013<\/strong> h.12:00 (CET time) \u2013 Friday 5 \u2013<\/strong> \u2013 Saturday 6 \u2013<\/strong> h.18:00 (CET time)
