Contemporary dance festival

I was commissioned by Plesna Izba Maribor (just recently I had a solo photographic exhibition in Maribor showing my work for them in the last four years) to cover their contemporary dance festival called "Premik v Maribor / Move to Maribor".

From two dance workshops with international teachers (Daniel Abreu and Thomas Noone) to Slovenian and international contemporary dance performances, this has been a great ten days job, with some amazing dancers and a great working atmosphere all together.

You can find out more about the festival, the performances and their authors, and check out much more photos from the festival in the gallery at the festivals official site (which, by the way, was made by my company and yours truly).
