Background
In 1995 Delak Performing Arts Research Centre was founded in Ljubljana by Jana Pavlič, Dragan Živadinov (web projects) and Emil Hrvatin (research). Delak aimed for an open field of research and exchange of diverse contemporary artistic ideas. Its principal activity was the presentation of contemporary theatre and other related arts in various contexts. Its information and documentation projects were mainly complex new media projects. Castration Machines: Theatre and Art in the Nineties by Boris Pintar and Jana Pavlič was published by Delak and Maska in 2001, featuring 22 Slovene authors (also with video clips in the accompanying CD-ROM). Occasionally Delak organised meetings and theatre workshops intended for the professional and a wider audience.
Projects and programme
Delak has recently produced the first part of the trilogy Three Elizabethan Tragedies [Tri elizabetinske tragedije] by the Croatian playwright Vladimir Stojsavljević, which discusses the relation between theatre and the state in the period of Renaissance through its main protagonists, namely Christopher Marlowe, William Shakespeare and Ben Jonson. The performance Marlowe (2009), directed by Dragan Živadinov, deals with the emergence of Renaissance theatre after a millennium long tradition of passion plays, while Marlowe himself is presented as a founder of a modern artistic paradigm, which is linked to the strengthening of humanistic values and man's emancipation. The last part of the trilogy The Forbidden Theatre [Prepovedano gledališče], also directed by Živadinov, premièred in 2008.
In January, March, and May 2009 Delak organised three lectures by Dragan Živadinov: Five Inventions of the Modernistic Biography (the case of Mile Korun), Trieste Constructivist Ambient (1927), and The 21st Century Postgravity Art.
International cooperation
Delak is a member of the European Network of Information Centres for the Performing Arts (ENICPA).
