2010
This year the curator for the Royal Opera House’s contemporary arts festival will be internationally renowned pianist, composer and auteur Joanna MacGregor. For the 2010 festival Joanna has taken her inspiration from forests: forests as a place of quiet, reflective beauty, mystery and discovery, as places of fairytale narrative, as well as metaphorical spaces. She has invited artists to create forests all over the Royal Opera House in different materials: recycled and reclaimed wood, organic materials, old costumes and mannequins, shimmering projections and reflecting pools. There are films, music and dance performances, soundscapes and installations. In amongst the forests are hints of the forthcoming Season, as well as echoes of Covent Garden’s old flower market. Each space is designed so that you can enter at any moment and stay for as long or as little time as you would like with performances recurring throughout the weekend.
