Mission – touching with stories
The aim of tanssiARTesaani dance group is to bring contemporary dance and performative arts to a wider audience and stimulate them with interactions and active reactions.
The artistic goal is to tell stories through artistic projects that combine different media and the collaboration with different artists, able to touch the sensitivity of the spectators.
The association is supporting each production ensuring the collaborations with other organizations and professional artists and helping to create projects for and with novice artists and amateurs.
Vision – multi-language projects
Contemporary dance, unfortunately, has a marginal role among the arts field, as it is considered too elitist and not understandable.
TanssiARTesaani wants to bring back the audience to enjoy and to comprehend dance performances and to get involved from the related stories.
To accomplish this vision, tanssiARTesaani wants to merge in its projects contemporary dance techniques with more approachable languages from films, theatre and even culinary.
Values
- To express personal feelings
