ANTS 2020: SCAN-AESTHETICS
26–27 November, Bergen/Zoom
How has the non-institutional theatres /independent dance, theatre and performance field emerged and developed in Scandinavia and the Nordic/Baltic region?
The research milieu in Theatre Studies at University of Bergen has instigated a research project for the study of Scandinavian independent theatre from the 1960s to the 2010s, defined as SCAN-AESTHETICS which has been developed with Scandinavian colleagues. Together we have identified a research gap regarding the study of independent theatre and performance groups not only in the countries traditionally defined as “Scandinavian”, but within the Nordic-Baltic region in general. SCAN-AESTHETICS is henceforth to be understood as a catchword to cover the Scandinavian and Nordic/Baltic dimension seen as region. The understanding of the field of performing arts in this project also includes popular art, musical theatre, cabaret and circus.
