Dance production
Since its beginnings, En-Knap Productions acted as the producer of dance performances by the international dance group En-Knap, which was founded in 1993 by Iztok Kovač in Leuven, Belgium under the wings of the production-managing house Stuc and the Klapstuk Festival, Belgium. The group immediately gains wide recognition abroad as well as at home, while Iztok Kovač receives the Prešeren Foundation Award for the group’s first performance Spread Your Wings (You Clumsy Elephant) [Razširi krila (slon nerodni)] (1993). This was the first time that the highest national cultural award was given to an artist coming from the field of contemporary dance. The group’s later productions include Sting and String – First Touch [Struna in želo – prvi dotik] (1996), Laws of Cobra [Zakonitosti kobre] (1997), Far Away from Sleeping Dogs [Daleč od spečih psov] (1999), Emanatio Protei (2000), all choreographed by Iztok Kovač, Hu Die (2001), choreographed by Iztok Kovač, Julyen Hamilton, and Denes Dabrei, and on the occasion of the 10th anniversary of the group’s activities Throw of Dice [Met kocke] (2003), choreographed by Kovač and the film director Sašo Podgoršek, which brings together the group’s former dancers and collaborators.
En-Knap Productions produces also works by other artists, such as Mala Kline, whose debut Campo de Fiori receives the Golden Bird Award in 2004, Andreja Rauch, whose performance Weavers [Tkalci] is chosen as the best performance at the 2007 Gibanica festival, Maja Delak, Yasmine Hugonnet, and Hanna Preuss.
In 2007, EnKnapGroup, the first permanent professional contemporary dance group in Slovenia, is established, which includes an international team of dancers. The group works with renowned Slovenian and foreign choreographers and directors.
Film Production
En-Knap Productions filmography includes five dance films and six documentaries, most of which made in collaboration with the Slovene film director Sašo Podgoršek. Most acclaimed films include Vertigo Bird [Vrtoglavi ptič ] (1996), which receives the award for best film at the Festival of Slovene Film and the Springdance Cinema Award in Holland, Dom Svobode (2000), both directed by Sašo Podgoršek and featuring choreography by Iztok Kovač, the short film Taming the Time [Krotilci časa] (2000), directed by Dan Oki, a Croatian film and video artist from De Vrije Academie, the Hague, and What Are You Going to Do When You Get Out of Here? [Kaj boš počel, ko prideš ven od tu?] (2006), awarded as the best short and middle-length film and receiving the award for best editing and photography at the 8th Festival of Slovene Film.
International Cooperation and Education
In the sixteen years of En-Knap Productions activities, the institute collaborated with over fifty international and national co-producers and organized over eighty workshops, master classes, and auditions, in which over 3000 dancers and other artists had participated.
In collaboration with the European programme Culture 2000, En-Knap Productions successfully realized the international experimental project CIMET (Cultural Intersections, Mobility, Education and Tradition) in 2004/2005. CIMET aims to meet the needs of young artists from the region who are embarking on their creative careers and seeking opportunities to further their skills in contemporary dance, performance, and experimental theatre. The project’s partners are SEAD – Salzburg Experimental Academy Dance, Inteatro (Polverigi) C4 – Associazione Calvicanti (Ancona), Body Unlimited Programme of Contemporary Performing Arts Centre, and the Academy of Arts, University of Novi Sad. }}
