2015-2017
Ex Chiesa di Santa Caterina, Foligno, PG
A cura di La Società dello Spettacolo e Viaindustriae

Performing Santa Caterina is a performing arts festival that took place in the spaces of the former Santa Caterina church in Foligno, now a cultural centre. The festival includes contemporary theatre, performance, dance, happening, interactive installation and sound projects. Viaindustriae together and La società dello spettacolo, have conceived a programme challenging the boundaries of disciplines, acting with a plurality of languages, freed from the restricted code of a genre. Artists take part in a production residency before the show. Performing Santa Caterina, part of the Foligno InContemporanea project (winner of the call for artistic residencies by the Region of Umbria) provided an international programme of productions and residencies in the performing arts branch. The editions from 2015 to 2017 saw in residence: Myriam Laplante, Filippo Marzocchi, Elisabetta Senesi, Marcella Vanzo/Cristina Abati, Isabella Bordoni.

Viaindustriae is a cultural association and publishing house based in Foligno, PG, Italy. Founded in 2005, it promotes projects and artistic research ranging from museum exhibitions, site-specific installations, public actions, artist residencies and publications in various formats. In the last ten years, the publishing activity has consolidated to become the association's main field of action. Viaindustriae publishes artists' books, experimental research books, territorial studies, exhibition catalogues, monographic catalogues - among other forms of publishing - using publishing practice as a generative tool for artistic experimentation. The books have different formats that do not follow the standards of a canonical publishing practice but rather the needs and specificities of each project. Viaindustriae sees the publishing practice as an act of translation that requires a transformation of the art or visual work into a new form, where the work itself develops new possibilities and meanings; this is why each book becomes an autonomous platform and not just an opportunity to transfer content.
