“Every new beginning
leads you to a mystery.
Every beginning carries
that potential of the unknown.
It relates to how we move,
how we hear, how we listen,
how we spend time with something,
how we see what is around us.”
Meg Stuart

In the 8th edition of PACAP, Forum Dança is curated by choreographer Meg Stuart, who proposed holding the first edition of Mystery School of Choreography.

PACAP 8 | Mystery School of Choreography (MYS) is an experimental study program for performing artists. It is an interdisciplinary place where fascination with the metaphysical intertwines with composition, choreography, and artistic creation. It is a step towards a deeper understanding of learning, practising, and activating knowledge that is often present in the performing arts but not directly addressed.

Inspired by the museum space, MYS brings continuous learning to the gallery, unfolding a catalogue of an interwoven and expanded process. We will reflect, nurture, and digest together. Through the incorporation of the shared archive, visitors will be invited to encounter desires and visions that were born from the seeds of deep research and a collective journey.
