GRAY BOX
Founded in Berlin in 2014, the Paris-based company Gray Box aims to experiment with the interactions and common territories of contemporary dance, visual arts, and fashion: "Black Box", "White Cube", and "Catwalk". Based on interdisciplinary, research based-collaborations, and collective creative process, Gray Box creates and curates site-specific projects questioning sexuality, gender, identity from a feminist and queer perspective. Choreographies, public performances, exhibition works, fashion collections, together with workshops challenge the body as a historically disciplined and shaped "archive", where power is constantly contested and negotiated.

ANNA ÁDÁM
Anna Ádám (b. 1983) is a Hungarian performance maker and visual artist whose work blurs the boundaries between choreography, image, and object with emphasis on the body as the central form of expression. With highly charged imagery, combining choreography, photography, drawing, installation, clothing, fashion-performance, One-on-One performance, and Seance, she conceptualizes and uses the exhibition space as a theatre, and the theater as an exhibition space. Her multidisciplinary and often site-specific projects echo the broader socio-political context, focus on socio-cultural changes and sub-cultures, challenge hegemonic class, gender, normative behaviors, and dominant ideologies.
Anna Ádám also participated as a performance artist to external projects (Palais de Tokyo (FR), Musée Georges Pompidou (FR)...), since 2015 she presents regularly her works in both theaters (E-Werk Kulturzentrum (DE), Theater MU (HU), National Theater (HU), Piccolo Teatro (DE)...) and exhibition spaces (Ludwig Museum (HU), Museum of Modern Art Yerevan (AM), National Museum of History Paris (FR)...), and holds workshops and seminars in universities across Europe (Sweden, Hungary, Serbia, France, Armenia...).
