Pavel Storek and the 4+4 Festival

Later in the day, after the Meet Factory and visits to a number
Of contemporary art galleries, I met up with Pavel who is Artistic
Direcotr of the festival. He has been its only director for the
Last 14 years. The festival is currently on and I had the opportunity
To see a dance work from Kettly Noel from Africa.
The work, danced by two women explored what it is to be a woman, from vanity
To anti-vanity; from shoesn clothes and mirrors to the notion
of love and anger.
An interesting work in a venue called La Fabrika, in an old industrial
Area.
Pavel has a real interest in the role space plays on the making of work and the
Socio-political mores of the time. He shifts his festival to
Make best use of spaces as they relate to the times.
