The Centre for Sonorous Arts strives to be the home of all sonorous arts; as well as all the artistic, exploratory and educational activities that use sound as a possible means of understanding reality, or as their medium of expression, creation and experience. In the near future, the Centre plans the construction of a fully dedicated sonourous theatre hall in the Vodnik Homestead. It also offers space rental for events.
Sonorous theatre
Sonorous theatre is a brand new form of stage arts, which originated and developed in the Slovenian cultural space and which communicates with its audience through atmosphere and vibration; the universal language of sound. The first sonorous theatre project that was presented in the Centre was the fairy tale Madam Beanpole and the Stray Little Sound [Gospa Sulica in izgubljeni zvokec], produced by Hanna's Atelier for Sonorous Arts and co-produced by Festival Bobri.
Gallery activities
The installations held in the Centre actualize and discuss current reality and the prevalent modern social practices. The Centre has thus presented the installation/sonorous invocation The Returned [Vrnivec] (2013), soundscape and direction by Hanna Preuss, VJ and motion graphics by Luka Umek and light engineering by Jaka Šimenc; hosted the art collective Gruppo78 led by Maria Campitelli with their audiovisual installations and performance titled Art Is a Rebellion Against Fate [Umetnost je upor proti usodi], etc.
Permanent exhibitions
The Centre hosts an exhibition of photographs and posters from performances of the sonorous theatre titled From the Dark, featuring the works by the photographer Nada Žgank and the graphic designer Jaro Jelovac, an exhibition of clay sculptures by Lučka Koščak, and in the manor park, a participatory sculptural installation Farewell, conceived by Lučka Koščak and Hanna Slak.
Concerts
Concert activities in the Centre for Sonorous Arts, Vodnik Manor, offer artistic as well as popular music events in a variety of fields ranging from classical music to folk, jazz and contemporary musical genres.
Children's programme
The mission of the Centre's children’s programme is to promote the creative understanding and individual expression of sound and music, which teaches, facilitates and develops musical literacy in children, adolescents and all those who wish to foster their musical sensibility. It offers workshops in the field of sound, music, painting and environmental awareness and hours of creative play.
