The concept for Via Negativa evolved out of a need to re-examine the ideas, meanings, and explanations that underpin theatrical production and to challenge the dominant production models and normative standards of making theatre. Understanding theatre as a principle of communication rather than aestheticisation, Via Negativa is known for applying a method of reduction in exploring the relationship between the performer and the spectator, which is conceptualised as a complex flow of expectations, judgments, stereotypes, fallacies, prejudices, and knowledge or lack thereof, which trigger various emotional, rational or irrational responses.
Collaborating with a range of established and emerging makers, Via Negativa has been developing its work through the following performance cycles:
The cycle (2002–2008) was dedicated to negative drives of life as the basic dynamic of subjectivity and was developed within the thematic framework of the seven deadly sins. It resulted in seven performances, including Incasso (2005), which received a special jury award at the 11th INFANT International Festival Novi Sad in 2005.
This performance cycle (2009–2011) reflected on the relationship between creation and destruction, theory and practice, copy and original, presence and absence, and value and price, and featured small format projects, mainly solos or duets, among them also the solo piece by Marko Mandić ‘’MandićMachine’’ (2011), which was awarded by the Association of Theatre Critics and Researchers of Slovenia, at the Slovene Festival of Chamber Theatre (SKUP), and at the INFANT International Festival in Novi Sad. The performance-exhibition Via Nova Museum received the Audience Award for Best Performance at the 2009 edition of Eẋ Ponto International Festival.
The latest of Via Negativa's cycles (2012 - ongoing) addresses the utopian foundations of modern society, ideas such as justice, freedom, and equality, which are the subject of permanent ideological manipulations and irresolvable social tensions.
For more about Via Negativa's projects see below.
Via Negativa regularly presents its work at Stara Elektrarna - Old Power Station (initially also at Mini Theatre and Glej Theatre in Ljubljana) and often collaborates with other institutions, e.g. Slovene National Theatre Drama Ljubljana, City of Women Festival, Pekinpah Association, Institute Maska, Sploh Institute, etc.
In cooperation with Bunker Institute, City of Women, and Contemporary Dance Association Slovenia, Via Negativa also co-organises the series of public discussions titled The Audience Council, aimed at encouraging reflection and the exchange of the audience’s views.
Via Negativa uses workshops to develop a model for the international production of contemporary theatre works that would not be driven by the logic of limiting the number of permanent members. Including international teams of performers, Via Negativa has produced work in collaboration with University of Zagreb - Student Centre - Teatar &TD; the International Festival of Contemporary Theatre Zadar Snova; Kampnagel, Hamburg; Eurokaz, Zagreb; the Croatian National Theatre Opera Zagreb; Oblivia, Helsinki; Maat Festival, Lublin; JaJaJa NeNeNe Association, Warsaw; Forum Freies Theater, Düsseldorf; Tanzhaus nrw, Dusseldorf; etc.
Via Negativa performances have been presented at various international festivals, such as the Venice Biennial, the Contemporary Drama Festival Budapest, the International Festival Perforacije Dubrovnik, the International Festival of New Theatre Eurokaz, Es.terni Festival - International Festival of Contemporary Creation, Desiree International Theatre Festival Subotica, Fabrik Potsdam, Sacred Homelands Festival, UK; Electro Camp Festival, Venice; Infant Festival, Mladi levi Festival, Exodos International Festival of Contemporary Performing Arts, etc.
