The artist Francesco Kiàis, collaborator of InArts Lab, has been invited at the VENICE INTERNATIONAL PERFORMANCE ART WEEK (Venice, 15-18/1/2020). The Department of Audio and Visual Arts and the Interactive Arts Lab (InArts) will collaborate as cultural partners.

The VENICE INTERNATIONAL PERFORMANCE ART WEEK is an event focused on Performance Art, among the most renowned at an international level, and where experimentation crosses different artistic practices, conveying them in a co-creative process of Live Art, of theoretical elaboration and poetic expression.

After the trilogy (Hybrid Body - Poetic Body [2012] . Ritual Body - Political Body [2014] . Fragile Body - Material Body [2016]) the VENICE INTERNATIONAL PERFORMANCE ART WEEK has deepened its educational and collaborative aspect by involving artists from all over the world in an act of intense sharing, of creative participation and experimentation.

Konstantinos Tiligadis, refers to this spirit of experimentation and knowledge sharing, supports Francesco Kiais' presence at the event.
