The 6 Cali Colombia Performance Festival is a project of the independent artists colective Helena Producciones http://www.helenaproducciones.org (Wilson Di'az, Ana Maria Milla'n, Claudia Patricia Sarria, Andre's Sandoval y Juan David Medina). This project is held in Cali-Colombia since 1998.
The Cali Performance Festival celebrates and encourages excellence, risk, creativity, participation and debate through partnership, knowledge, quality, access and education. The Festival promotes symbolic and material communication between the Colombian community, Colombian and international artists, curators, art administrators and artistic networks, generating cultural strategies around art which may have an impact upon our community.
The VI Festival will include 3 exhibition, 3 workshops, public interventions and a performance journey all happening between the 25 and 28 April 2006. These activities, free for the general comunity, will take place in several public, private and independent spaces around the city.
The Festival will be held in Cali, a Colombian city with a very critical situation due to its current run down economy and the proximity of the Colombian Presidential elections which will take place on the 28th of May.
Cali is a tropical city located in the middle of sugar cane fields and refineries related to the influence of the Spanish Colony after the seventeenth century. This postcolonial situation gives the regional culture a special and interesting character.
The VI Performance Festival will be an exciting event for artists, activists, curators, theorists, art administrators, professional networks and the general public, as the local and national context brings together historic, political, geographic, economic and environmental issues that will provide a very interesting scenery for discussion and debate.
