Via Negativa is an international theatre research project led by the stage director Bojan Jablanovec. After completing the first cycle of performances that revolved around the seven deadly sins, Via Nova embarks on a new series of performances that re-examine the boundaries between the performer and the spectator, theory and practice, reality and fiction, creation and destruction, and value and price. The performance-exhibition Via Nova Museum received the audience award for best performance at the latest edition of Festival Ex ponto.

The concept for Via Negativa evolved out of a need to re-examine the ideas, meanings, and explanations that underpin theatrical production and out of the conviction that dominant production models and normative standards of making theatre had become a museum of historical aesthetic forms. The research has focused on methods of acting and forms of production within the thematic framework of the seven deadly sins (anger, gluttony, greed, sloth, lust, envy, pride), which resulted in seven performances: Starting Point: Anger [Izhodiščna točka: jeza] (2002), More [Še] (2003), Incasso (2005), Would Would Not [Bi ne bi] (2005), Viva Verdi (2006), Not Like Me [Ne kot jaz] (2007), Four Deaths [Štiri smrti] (2007), and Out (2008). Although applying a method of reduction (no stage illusion and no drama text, stage set, costumes or stage technology, just the actor’s imagination and body, and the spectators' imagination and time), Jablanovec is above all interested in theatre as a principle of communication rather than aestheticisation.
