The www.avantgardefestival.de has something magic... it is very small: no more that 400 people and very family-like. It takes place in a huge farm in Schiphorst near Hamburg, the headquarters of Faust legendary Krautrock band. You will meet up with over 100 artists coming from 15 nations, you will see the biggest name of the Avantgarde side by side with yet-unknown groups, no backstage, no VIPs, no headliners. The food is great, the prices are incredible. Chris Cutler said "..three days of Utopia! ". 3-day pass 60 EUR, earlybirds get it cheaper :)
...three days of Utopia... The Avantgarde Festival in Schiphorst near Hamburg is the most relevant live event for experimental arts in western Europe. · · · Lydia Lunch's Big Sexy Noise · Ferdinand Försch · Gallon Drunk · Blood Stereo · Kommissar Hjuler & MamaBaer & Clive Graham · Bobby Conn · UnicaZurn · ookoi-A Table! · Chaos Physique · Nathan Siter · The Grand Erector · Reportaz · Faust & friends · Toys'r'Noise · Philippe Petit · Sascha Aurora Akhtar · Richard Lainhart · P.A.S.& Vultures · Blaakraft · Patricia Molins · Quattrophage · Somnambule · Mareike Kroschel · Qarad Quintette · Maya Danon · Penates · Thorsten Soltau · Lisa Dillan · Underdog · Stadtfischfilm · Gugu Flux · Balog · Datashock · Anton Tornister · DJ Tango-Mango · Aerosol Light Textures · Matthieu Safatly · OHcy-espe · Jetzmann · Thomas Zunk · 2, 3, 4 july 2010.
... not just music... our aim is to create a place… and an atmosphere where…like musicians who meet on stage to jam... well , other artists like… painters, poets, shortfilm-makers… visuals... find a space to "jam", to collaborate... on a screen , on a canvass…
… a retreat ... "chill area"... is very important ... intensive listening and viewing can be very exhausting....
…oh yes… last year we came across the element "Fire"… in a performance by Spanish and French artists ... this year we want to develop this idea a bit more… we have invited a french lady welder artist… "jam" with local craftsmen ? … "fireworks" ? not quite ... rather "works with fire " ... and …well, the spoken word - the often forgotten spoken word ... a poet from Pakistan will be our guest this year and we hope that there will be an encounter of word artists... a sort of catalysation might happen ... or rather multiplication... yes, indeed… multiplication ...
