PARTNERSHIP PROGRAMS Parternship working is crucial to our program and to the reach and impact of our work. In 2016, along with existing established and re-invigorated partnerships, we were able to initiate new collaborations with local, national and international partners. BIENNALE OF SYDNEY AND CARRIAGEWORKS PARTNERSHIP: For the first time Critical Path partnered the Biennale of Sydney to undertake a series of research residencies, presentations and talks. The Biennale was led by Artistic Director Stephanie Rosenthal who has a strong track record in engaging with dance and choreographic practice within her work for galleries and exhibition.
LILACH LIVNE (ISRAEL) Lilach’s work explores themes relating to gender, religion, body perception and the abstraction as a political agenda. Her practice is in constant research and experimentation, creating performances, lectures, public acts, meetings, praying books and video art – all with the aim to reach the “non-image”. Research artists: Alice Heyward (Australia), Andrew Haining (Australia), Lilach Livne (Israel), Moran Sivan (Israel), Shahmen Suku (Australia) and Tal Haring (Israel). NICOLA CONIBERE (UK) Nicola’s work engages choreographic processes to explore the potentials of how bodies relate. She often investigates notions of theatricality, public appearing and social choreography in her work. Participants: Adam Warburton, Tom Blake, Bonnie Cowan, Bonnie Curtis, Briarna Longville, Helene Markstein, Jayne Watt, Jessica Holman, Karen Fermin, Karen Kerkhoven, Laura Osweiler,
