Founded on the principles of artistic collaboration, cooperation and temporary artistic community, CO-CREATION LIVE FACTORY Prologue 1 developed out of the ART WEEK’s core mission and its Educational Learning Program.
The performance lab empowered 75 artists from 27 countries to articulate and develop their individual praxis within an independent temporary autonomous zone of co-creation, under the tuition of the artists Marilyn Arsem, VestAndPage and Andrigo & Aliprandi. The culmination of this 10 days co-creation process was open to the public on the days December 14 -16, 2017: transforming the ART WEEK venue European Cultural Centre | Palazzo Mora together into a dynamic performance site through a series of collective performance operas, as well as solo and collaborative performances.
