Live Arts Week
Live Arts Week is a project by Xing, born in 2012 out the fusion of the experiences of the two Bologna festivals : Netmage - International Live Media Festival and F.I.S.Co. - Festival Internazionale sullo Spettacolo Contemporaneo.
Live Arts Week takes place in Bologna, Italy, once a year, and it is developed throughout one week in different locations and settings in town.
Mission
Event dedicated to live arts, it hosts a blend of artworks and productions that revolve around the presence, performance and perceptual experience of sounds and visions, with a program of live works presented by important personalities in the international and contemporary research scene. The set-up suggests a citywide event, involving several spaces, organizations and institutions active in the field of contemporary arts in Bologna.History
