ABOUT DIS_LECTURE
The lecture performance Something Very Special was created as part of the project DIS_Lecture—a series of lecture performances by artists with learning disabilities, who were invited to adapt this format in their own way to critically examine its ableist aspects. Along with their long-time collaborators, they are claiming their place in a field from which they have historically been excluded: the discourse on dance and performance.
DIS_Lecture was created by Saša Asentić as an accessible format that promotes critical culture and solidarity in dance.
