‘Brave New Worlds’, CHINA (Beijing) – CONGO (Kinshasa)

Arthub is delighted to participate and provide support to ‘Brave New Worlds’, CHINA (Beijing) – CONGO (Kinshasa) - a research initiative of Theatre in Motion (TIM) in Beijing and Royal Flemish Theatre (KVS) in Brussels.

This project focuses on the Democratic Republic of Congo (Kinshasa) and The People’s Republic of China (Beijing) – and the mobility between both. A group of Chinese artists, architects and writers is selected to collaborate with a group of Congolese counterparts (every group consists of 4-5 people) to track down
the presence of their expatriate compatriots in Congo and China respectively. They map the Chinese presence in Congo (Kinshasa) and the Congolese presence in China (Beijing or Yiwu2 ) in the form of (1) narratives (people), (2) objects and (3) buildings.

The confirmed chinese participants are Chen Shuyu, Zhao Chuan, Jiang Jun, Pak Sheung Chuen and Chi Peng. 
The first presentation will be hosted by Frie Leysen / Theater der Welt in Essen, from 5 to 11 july 2010.
