Sessions invite you to the inauguration of Theatro, an immersive installation for action, participation, and witnessing, that will host the official program of queer happenings starting on September 2, 2023.
Theatre and dance performances, screenings, workshops, talks, concerts, and parties, weekly meetings, and discussions will flood the State Gallery of Contemporary Art – SPEL until the end of the year, showcasing a wide range of projects that honor the multiplicity of interpretation and engagement.
In parallel, the Cerebral Gym curated by Loizos Olympios will be launched, evolving around the Reading Room of the third floor; an anti-collection of queer printed matter, engaging with archival and publishing practices.
The programme will be launched with the performance Dirt is for evry1!!!! by Subaerial, with 16 participating artists, while every Thursday at 20:20, the Cloud Transmissions will continue to take place on the rooftop.
