SUMMARY:Embodied Interventions
DESCRIPTION:Embodied Interventions\, LePARC’s signature event\, is coming back for its 7th edition on May 15 & 16!  \nCurated by Hannah Schallert and Casper Fosman-Sutton this year’s program\, titled (Re)animating Performance\, will focus on the overlapping spaces between labour and performance. The work of animation\, and the animation of work: to animate a space\, to be animated\, animare\, to give movement or life.   \nIn a cultural moment of increased automation and global upheaval\, labour becomes disconnected and disembodied. Experiences of precarity and the realities of global capital touch many more of our lives; shaping the way we perform selfhood\, making\, and relationality.  \n​Work bleeds into life\, love and leisure. Animation speaks to both the moving body as the sign of freedom\, spirit\, and liveliness\, and to the movement of labour needed to put into motion\, to make things happen\, to endow matter with life. To (re)animate in this context might be to return to a politic of embodiment\, to value both labour and labourer.  \n​Through social media and the digital\, our relationships to performance are also changed; we take the invisible for granted and fetishize the performative. The machinations of labour are the undercurrent that animates our lives. The work of the performer becomes the work of the contemporary subject – the production of subjectivity\, sociality and emotion.​ \n​On May 15 and May 16\, public presentations of these processes will be shown around the downtown Concordia University campus. These presentations are free\, and open to the public.

SUMMARY:Lecture-performance: Jeroen Peeters
DESCRIPTION:Join LePARC for a lecture-performance of La Table (1967-1973) by Jeroen Peeters. Written by French poet Francis Ponge\, La Table is the last of his notebook works\, dedicated to his immediate environment\, la table. \nIn this lecture-performance\, essayist Jeroen Peeters takes up the invitation to do the reading of this notebook and the tables it evokes. Seated at a wooden table\, he activates Ponge’s book by way of reading (in English translation)\, gestures as well as visual and textual annotations that are projected live. \n  \nABOUT JEROEN PEETERS: \nJeroen Peeters (1976) is an essayist\, dramaturg and performer based in Brussels. His experimental writing practice translates itself in essays\, artist books\, lecture-performances and installations. As a dramaturg\, performer\, editor and curator\, he has collaborated with a great number of people in the field of contemporary dance and beyond. As a critic and researcher\, he has published widely on contemporary dance and performance as well on matters such as spectatorship\, ecologies of attention\, readership\, dramaturgy\, embodied knowledge\, material literacy and sustainable development\, \nIn March 2025\, Peters defended his PhD in the arts at Hasselt University\, Faculty of Architecture and Arts\, And PXL-MAD School of Arts\, on ” Conceptual Landscapes: Readership in the Expanded Field”. \n  \nFebruary 12\, 2026 \n 5 PM \nLePARC Performance Lab EV 10.785

SUMMARY:Augmented Reality Soundwalking Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Discover a new way to experience the city.\nABOUT THE WORKSHOP: \nLed by PhD Candidate Amanda Gutiérrez\, this workshop invites you to immerse yourself in Montreal’s urban environment\, focusing on its soundscapes and the architectural echoes that define its character. In this workshop\, we will stroll through the streets and listen to urban architecture\, soundscapes\, and their socio-cultural layers. Through counter-mapping we will identify the sonic landmarks that contrast and amplify our spatial meanings. This activity will help us plan a score and a walking itinerary. We will map and trace these spatial relations to develop an Augmented Reality (AR) soundwalk informed by our situated meanings\, creatively sense and discuss the location’s visible\, audible\, and symbolic layers to co-create its sound design. We will learn to use the custom-made AR platform ECHOES\, which gives users access to its web-based interface. The workshop will focus on how AR technology operates through geolocation and movement\, while the sound design will extend into the spatial dimension. \nWe aim to create a group AR soundwalk to highlight the participants’ experiences and their designs. This intuitive relationship will help foster group dynamics by offering sound grounding exercises in listening positionality. The AR walk developed during the workshop will be presented to the public and collectively amplified. \nNo previous experience is needed in sound or web development. \n  \nABOUT AMANDA GUTIERREZ: \nAmanda Gutiérrez (she/her) was initially trained as a stage designer\, studying at The National School of Theater in Mexico. Presently\, Gutiérrez uses a range of media\, such as sound and performance art\, to investigate the aural culture of everyday life. Gutierrez is actively advocating for listening practices while being one of the board of directors of the World Listening Project\, formerly working with The Midwest Society of Acoustic Ecology\, and currently as the scientific comitée of the Red Ecología Acústica México. Currently\, she is a Ph.D. student at Concordia University and a research assistant at lab PULSE and Acts of Listening Lab. \n  \n  \n🗓 June 19-20\, 2025\n⏱️ 2-5 PM\n📍LePARC Performance Lab\n🎟️  Reserve your spot here

SUMMARY:Artist Talk: Lília Mestre & Laura Pante 
DESCRIPTION:Join us on December 7th\, 2023\, from 5-7 PM\, at the Performance Lab (EV 10.785)\, for an artist talk hosted by LePARC with one of the cluster’s new co-directors Lilia\, and visiting doctoral student Laura Pante who is here until the end of December. \nLília Mestre (she\, her) is a performing artist\, dramaturge and researcher working in collaborative formats mainly in the fields of contemporary dance and choreography. Mestre works with scores\, inter-subjective set-ups and other chance-induced processes as emancipatory artistic and pedagogical tools\, which have been documented in various publications. She is interested in forms of organization created by and for artistic practice as alternative study processes for social-political reflection. For the past 8 years\, she has been working on the concept of ‘artificial friendship’ which has been the source for the creation of methodological structures (scores) for exchange and collaboration in artistic research settings. Mestre has worked as mentor\, project curator and artistic coordinator of the postgraduate program a.pass (advanced performance and scenography studies) in Brussels\, Belgium since 2012. She is currently Assistant Professor at the Department of Contemporary Dance and Co-director of the Performing Arts Research Cluster (LePARC) at Concordia University. \nLaura Pante (Italy\, 1983) is a dancer and artistic researcher of dance theories and practices. She graduated in Visual Arts at IUAV University of Venice. Since October 2020 she has been a PhD student at the same university\, where she conducts research titled Soil\, Landscape\, Habitat – three ways of the relationship between presence\, body and the virtual under the supervision of Prof. Annalisa Sacchi. In 2019\, she completed a period of study at APASS (Advanced Performance and Scenographic Studies) in Brussels. Her research focuses on the analysis of the political articulation of thought and movement in the context of the relationship between body techniques and technologies of the self. Pante is currently a visiting researcher at the Performing Arts Research Cluster.
