Launched in 2008 by Ljubljana Dance Theatre (PTL), the biannual Ukrep - Festival of Dance Perspectives attempts to redefine the emancipatory potential of contemporary dance and performing arts practices. The festival presents emerging dance makers and organises discussions and theoretical/dramaturgy workshops. As part of Ukrep (in English: Taking Measures), a number of other activities (called Med-ukrep) are organised between individual editions of the festival, which include lectures by different philosophers, theoreticians, and directors as well as individual interdisciplinary projects.
The festival is intended to the presentation of emerging dance makers and aims for a strategic development of contemporary dance in Slovenia. The festival closely collaborates with the Seminar of Contemporary Performing Arts, organised by Maska Institute.
