From Brussels With Love 2019: Visitors’ programme performing arts during Kunstenfestivaldesarts
From Brussels With Love 2018.
During Kunstenfestivaldesarts, Wallonie-Bruxelles Théâtre/Danse and Flanders Arts Institute organise their visitors’ programme ‘From Brussels with Love’ for the sixth time in a row. For this year’s programme, from 14 to 16 May, we’re adding the city of Antwerp to our itinerary and collaborate with among others Théâtre Varia, workspacebrussels, Vincent Company and Les Brigittines.
This visitors’s programme is aimed at international performing arts programmers and allows them to immerse themselves in the work of Brussels- and Antwerp-based artists, discover interesting venues in Brussels and Antwerp, meet with artists as well as with Belgian and international colleagues. They can, of course, discover the Kunstenfestivaldesarts shows.
‘From Brussels With Love’ focuses on a new generation of dance and performance artists with the potential of going international, ranging from finished productions to works in progress.
