The festival took place from 14-16/7/2015 at Beit Mazia in Jerusalem.
The “Dance Arena” festival was established in response to the need for an experimental platform for dance. It functioned as a springboard and a significant milestone for many of the country’s best artists. Sahar Azimi, the project’s artistic director, chose to focus on the artist and his or her personal and unique position. The artists were asked to begin a work from scratch, to forget the call for proposals to which they’d responded, and to set out in a new direction. The group of artists in the 2015 Dance Scene came together as a courageous and sensitive circle that exposed all the stages of the creative process and questions of art and craft.
