Culture, Genocide & the small matter of Theatre
Saturday 9 Jan, 2pm to 5pm
Erik Ehn's artistic practice, as playwright, theatre director and teacher, is deeply influenced and informed by the intersections of cultural development, the collapse of culture (which is genocide) and the responsibilities of contemporary theatre. It is an urgently compelling field that combines theatricality, cultural productions and ethics. His play Mario Kizitowas based on the 1994 genocide in Rwandaand was the result of his research in that Central African country. He is also the founder of an annual conference called Arts in One World, which brings together performing artists, scholars and human rights activists to investigate theater on the subject of genocide and reconciliation.

Artists at Work is a series that aims to explore the possible interaction between

possibilities from such an interaction. In the first of its series, artists from
disciplines ranging from tattoo art to glasswork tried their hands at painting on
stone. Attendees were treated to a 'behind the scenes' of the creative process of an
artist. New works on stone were also created over this short span of
two days. This outreach event is presented by Glass Studio at Emily Hill and
Polystone.
