The Robert Capa Contemporary Photography Center presents the second edition of the CAPAZINE workshop.

This year’s buzzword – LET’S DANCE invited photographers and musicians to work together on joint projects. The workshop was focusing on the relationship between the art of music and the photographic imaging, investigating the possibilities of soundscapes, sheet music layouts, montage, re-enactment, intersections in the history of music and photography, and artistic experimentation.

While photography freezes the time, capturing the moment by specific visual motifs; composing, playing and listening to music is a temporal process. The workshop’s objective was to find meeting points between music and photography and inspire innovative new creations that use the instruments of both arts activating radically different sensory apparatus. In this context, dance is considered the cooperative action of the participants where the couples and trios coordinate their collective movements, connecting photographs and stills to musical pieces.
