This summer intensive will be led by troupe members Guillermo Gómez-Peña, Erica Mott, Saul Garcia Lopez & Dani d’Emilia. The focus will be on new performance art strategies and the human body as a site for creation, reinvention, memory and activism. We will also place particular emphasis in the relationship between the human body and architecture by intervening different indoor and outdoor spaces. At the end of the workshop we will have an epic jam session open to the local arts community. This amazing cross-cultural, cross-disciplinary and cross-generational laboratory will only host 22 participants.
The infamous ‘Pocha workshop’ is internationally recognized as “an amazing artistic and anthropological experiment in which carefully selected artists from several countries and every imaginable artistic, ethnic sub-cultural background and gender persuasion, begin to negotiate common ground. Performance becomes the connective tissue and lingua franca for our temporary community of rebel artists.”
As always, space will be limited and is expected to fill quickly. We encourage all interested applicants to submit materials to us as soon as possible.

LA POCHA REMIX:
PSYCHO-MAGIC ACTIONS AGAINST VIOLENCE
Sinopse:
Pocha Remix é a apresentação de uma série de formatos inovadores cultivados pelo La Pocha Nostra que incorporam simultaneamente o diálogo entre os atos performativos ao vivo e as imagens, intervenções poéticas e comentários des/construtivos. A performance pode ser vista como uma ação híbrida que ao mesmo tempo que dilacera um “Arquivo Vivo” dos performes revela uma pedagogia artística radical. O público é convidado a participar desse bizarro experimento. Eles serão convidados a encarnar “os sonhos e pesadelos dos tempos atuais” e ajudar os artistas a re/criarem novas iconografias intervindo na ação de seus próprios corpos em relação aos corpos dos performers. |

Corpo Insurrecto - R&D Residency (Oaxaca-MX)
In March 2012, La Pocha core members spent a week at CASA (Centro de Las Artes de San Augustin) brainstorming, rehearsing new material, debating, laughing and
facing the daunting yet exciting task of creating our next big
performance piece: 'CORPO INSURRECTO'
An excerpt from the performance script of the open showing at the end of our residency
(This part read by Gomez-Peña at the beginning of the presentation):
Dear Audience, welcome to our performance laboratory. What you are witnessing here tonight is not a performance but rather a work in progress and glimpse into our week-long rehearsal process.
For the past week core La Pocha Nostra troupe members: Roberto Sifuentes (Chicago/LA) Erica Mott (Chicago), Dani d’Emilia (Brazil), Saul Garcia Lopez (Mexico City/Toronto), Emma Tramposch (San Francisco/New Zealand) and I have been engaged in a daily workshop and rehearsal process with the goal of generating new material for our next large scale performance project. We are searching for living metaphors to articulate the multiple crises we are all facing. The images you will witness here are personas still in the process of formation. Images in search of a place in the world. In a sense you are witnessing the last moments of our week-long workshop and these young images are being tried out for the first time. We invite you to move around the space and view the work from multiple angles and perspectives throughout the evening.
La Pocha Nostra wishes to thank the generous staff at CASA who have made us feel very at home for the week. Special thanks to Daniel Brena, César Espinoza, and our protectors Abel Palacios Gomez and Miguel Angel Cruz Lopez. The troupe wishes to thank Gabriela Leon of La Pererra, Julia Antivilo, and Berenice Guraieb. Culinary gratitude is especially extended to María del Carmen Espinoza Lescas, Terea Ruíz and Alejandro Escobar of Comedor Alhelí. Last but definitely not least, the troupe wants to say a special thank you to our international Kickstarter supporters, without their generosity we would not have had this amazingly inspirational and productive week in Mexico.”
