If you are a performance art maker and you need space and time to research, an environment to develop your project, an opportunity to present your work and to open up your collaborative network – welcome to PARL.

PARL provides each participant with studio space at the Ljubljana Academy of Theatre. The course of work at PARL is focused on development of creative processes, performative strategies and presentation formats with the ambition of expanding the field of contemporary performance practice and upgrading its production models.

Every day your studio work will end with feedback on your current development of the project. The team of coaches will focus on all the aspects of your work from conceptual to esthetic issues. You will start your workdays with morning classes led by experienced artists.

Ljubljana's independent art scene is a field of intellectual and artistic resistance marked by continuous "fighting" against the dominant cultural, political and ideological mindset. At PARL you will get in touch with different creative practices of leading Ljubljana performance artists and have the opportunity to present your work in progress to the public.
