“Chromatic Wednesdays”is a bi-weekly event series organized by Apartment Project, which promotes artistic expression across various disciplines and formats. Each month, Chromatic Wednesdays focuses on a new theme, for which two events are realized. In 2022, the themes were: Improvisation, Exile, Precarity, Mutualism, Recurrence, Echoes, Divergence, Instability, Curiosity, Resonance, Sanctuary and Inversion. In 2023: Solidarity, Upheaval, Resistance, Light, Comma, Mythology, Position, Urbanism, Unbound, Dystopia, Home and Intelligence. Chromatic Wednesdays invited artists, musicians, performers, scientists and cultural practitioners to collaborate, experiment and share their unique research, practices and experiences with each other and the public. The events included a wide range of multidisciplinary, hybrid formats, including concerts, performances, workshops, film screenings, lectures, exhibitions, readings, and panel discussions.

In 2021 the project came to life as a reaction to artistic disruption caused by the pandemic.  Today numerous challenges persistently endanger cultural production. How do artists and  audiences from different backgrounds and mediums come together? What forms of new expression can be explored or can be expanded? What kind of new networks between institutions and artists can be established? How can these networks sustain the survival of the artists?

As part of Chromatic Wednesdays’ Season 2 and 3, a total of 167 participants from countries, such as Turkey, Germany, France, Italy, Lebanon, Syria, Palestine, Ukraine, Norway, Japan, Iran, Poland, Switzerland, Brazil, Mexico, Argentina, Sweden, Russia, China, the U.K, USA, Portugal, Columbia, Costa Rica, Cameroon, Namibia, Israel, Egypt, Spain, Austria, Ireland, Russia, Taiwan were invited. Of them, 92 female, 63 male and 12 non-binary participated.

The very first editions were streamed online due to Corona measures. Since June 2021, the events have been held in a hybrid format, mainly at the Apartment Project and online.

UNCOMFORTABLE UTOPIE

Performance by Hannah Juliane Steenbeck and Milena Sundari (Zookunft.Project)
Where does dystopia begin and utopia end? The «Performance Museum» designed by Zookunft.Project collective members and performers Hannah Juliane Steenbeck and Milena Sundari explored these transitions, frictions and transformations as part of this Chromatic Wednesdays event. It invited the audience to experience how harmony becomes disharmony and calm becomes chaos through seeing, smelling, drawing, feeling and listening.

Hannah Juliane Steenbeck started training rhythmic gymnastics at the age of 6 and discovered her interest in combining different dance styles through breaking, popping and hip hop. From 2015 to 2018, she was a scholarship student at HF ZUB in Zurich. Since then, Juliane has worked as a dancer and choreographer in Germany and Switzerland with Grete Pagan, Lin Verleger, Joy Alpuerto Ritter, Giorgio Madia, Shafiki Sseggayi, Lin Verleger, Béatrice Goetz, Merge Dance Collective and Zookunft.Project amongst others. Her choreographic work was supported by Tankstelle Bühne Luzern, DIS-TANZ-SOLO, GVL and awarded at competitions of euroscene Leipzig, LOFFT Theater Leipzig and tanzspeicher Würzburg.

Milena Sundari, based in Berlin, started dancing at a very young age. Since graduating as a contemporary dancer in 2020, she has been exploring honesty in dance. In her pieces she tries to draw real life issues with the pen of mindfulness. She intertwines heavy themes with lightness, such as connecting grief with self-irony in her solo performance «to the graveyard (verb)». Her work has been supported by the Jewish Museum Berlin, DIS-TANZ-SOLO, A.PART, GVL, Fonds Soziokultur/Jonge Kunst and Theater Na de Dam.

The Zookunft.Project collective creates temporary, collective memories through artistic practices and self-propelling installations, in a laboratory-like atmosphere. It sees the future of dance, the arts and science in process-oriented, long-term projects that create communities, dare to break free from aesthetic constraints, empower self-responsibility, find new forms of communication and foster shared differences or commonalities rather than differences. The collective sees itself as a platform on which solutions to problems and narratives of our society are developed through interdisciplinary collaboration.
