有關乙城節 |
||
乙城節是一個都市文化節，內容圍繞各種興趣和活動，不但有表演和視覺藝術，更包羅文化交流、文物活化、歷史見證、城市研究及設計等。 乙城節希望透過多元化的節目，一方面為觀眾帶來憧憬、娛樂及刺激，另一方則為他們呈獻嶄新的視野和概念。 乙城節其中一項使命，是為本地藝術家建立聯繫，將他們的作品推廣至香港以外的地方，讓藝術無分國界，彼此交流。自1999年以來，乙城節已成功與阿德萊德、墨爾本、台北、高雄、首爾、上海、廣州、深圳、曼谷及新加坡等城市建立聯繫網絡，並將繼續尋求機會，於本地及區外舉辦更多活動。 藝穗會一直採取開放政策，並致力培育新進藝術家，為他們提供場地、宣傳支援和海外巡迴演出的機會，藉此支持各類型戲劇、舞蹈、音樂表演和展覽的發展和推廣。 |

The City Festival is an urban culture festival covering a wide array of interests and activities. It’s not just about the performing and visual arts; each year the festival includes cultural exchange projects, heritage and living history programmes, workshops about urban studies and design, and much more. With such a broad range of programmes, the City Festival aims not only to enthuse, entertain and stimulate our audiences, but also to present new perspectives and challenging ideas. One of the missions of the City Festival is to establish contacts and channels for local artists to tour and promote their works outside Hong Kong. Since its launch in 1999, the City Festival has succeeded in building a network with many cities around the region, including Adelaide, Melbourne, Kaohsiung, Taipei, Seoul, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Bangkok and Singapore. It will continue to seek new opportunities for new productions and touring, both in Hong Kong and abroad. The Fringe Club aims to provide an inclusive environment for artists to create and show their work, including all forms of theatre, dance, music and visual arts, by offering rent-free use of exhibition and performance facilities, plus admin, publicity and technical support in Hong Kong and overseas. |

乙城節挑戰傳統舉辦一個藝術節的方式。在過去幾個月，我們不斷反問自己一個簡單但絕不容易回答的問題：我們過去一直循用的思路，是否依然同社會現狀掛鉤？新科技讓個人處於非常自由「漫遊」的狀態，接觸藝術變得容易方便，更可隨心所欲選擇何時何地及如何欣賞藝術。於是我們為乙城節想出了新的發展思路——牆不住的藝術節。這個跨度為一年的藝術節將超越城市界限，並有充足時間探索各樣想法，和透過藝術活動建立人與人的關係。
