Ailleurs & Ici : Points communs devient Pôle International de Production et de Diffusion
Initiated by Points Communs in the light of seven years of experience at the Festival de Performance Arts et Humanités, the Pôle International de Production et de Diffusion Ailleurs & Ici provides an accompaniment, over a period of five years, to ten artists (five based in France and five based overseas), most of whom originate from the Global South and their diasporas in Europe. With its foothold in the Val-d’Oise region, the Pôle is backed up by a network of 11 partners from the Paris region and also from Europe, all of which are committed to producing, accompanying and distributing the various works. It bolsters the production conditions and facilitates the dissemination of the projects both in France and internationally by means of a tailor-made accompaniment drawing upon research, continued learning, distribution and cultural actions.
Intended as a space for setting up dialogue between the different territories, practices and audiences, Ailleurs & Ici pays particular attention to the issues of inclusion, equity and solidarity.
