32 cards: 22 dancers, 6 musicians, 4 jokers – ArtMan is 20 years old!
The ArtMan Association – on its twentieth birthday – is doing something that they have never done before. Artmenők and Tánceánia, their two inclusive groups, are creating a dance theatre production about the unattainable.
“Driven by some strange force, we strive for the unattanaible. We set off on a seemingly endless journey, entering unknown territories where our only support is the other who accompanies us. The stage becomes a place where opposites meet following the dynamics of departure and return, losing and finding, proximity and distance, art and reality. What am I taking with me? And from where to where?” (ArtMan)
In 2018 the ArtMan Association won the Special Prize of the most prestigious Hungarian professional award for contemporary dance, the Rudolf Lábán Award. A year earlier, in 2017, it was shortlisted for the Highlights of Hungary selection. Highlights of Hungary is a non-profit platform rewarding “outstanding Hungarian achievements” annually. This will be the 11th ArtMan evening at Trafó, featuring this contemporary dance community of mixed-ability creators and performers. In 2023 they premiered their highly successful performance, Idol in collaboration with Hodworks.
