Project summary

Without neglecting the enhancement of local excellence, the Visavì Gorizia Dance festival, already well established in the national and international context, wants to feed through the residency project the cultural liveliness of the proposal involving young artists who will have the opportunity to develop and show their work, taking advantage of the links between the festivals and its partners, to establish new collaborations and lasting relationships. The possibility of an innovative and international programme guarantees the circulation of the public and the encounter with other artistic languages for a common growth goal, thanks to which Nova Gorica and Gorizia, through a joint project, have been nominated for The European Capital of Culture 2025.
