BoCA EDUCATIONAL PROGRAM
BoCA EDUCATIONAL PROGRAM
In order to build knowledge based on the analysis of aspects of our reality and contemporary culture, the BoCA Educational Program is intended for the specialized and non-specialized public. The activities interact with the programme of visual arts, performing arts, performance and music – public activities dedicated to contemporary creation, but also directly with artists and their spaces of creation and research (rehearsal rooms, studios, ateliers), aswell with students and educational institutions in Lisbon and Porto. With workshops, meetings with artists and masterclasses, the Education Program creates a community of curious and contemporary arts professionals around BoCA biennial.
BOCA SUB21
coordination Hugo Barata and Sara Franqueira
BoCA Sub21 is a critical and authorial platform where the voice of a generation can transform the world or not, but it will put it on the way. The BoCA Sub21 team consists of a group of 12 youngers, aged between 16 and 21 years.
The main format is a blog (BLOG BoCA Sub21), fueled by actions, thoughts, ideas, criticisms and opinions, in the course of preparing and holding the biennial. The group meets every Saturday morning in the months of February, March and April, talks, laughs, debates, decides, writes, constructs images, publishes and implies body and mind in creative and learning processes.
BoCA Sub21 is an artistic laboratory where “things” happen; where we live the construction of a biennial, where we experience the making of installations, shows, concerts and where we test what is this to be a spectator. Through meetings with national and foreign artists, access to essays and artists’ workshops, visits to cultural venues (museums, galleries and theaters), training sessions, debates and private parties at the Lux (BoCA meeting point), the BoCA Sub21 give tools to this group of young people, to develop their own creative visions of the biennial.
MÚSICA POBRE

Over the course of six months, three music schools and three theaters have gathered around this educational and creation project, in Lisbon (Music School of the National Conservatory + National Theatre D. Maria II), Porto (ESMAE + National Theatre São João) and Castelo Branco (ESART + Cine-Teatro Avenida).
With the artists and researchers Filipa Francisco (choreographer), Pedro Tudela (visual and sound artist), Paulo Raposo and Filipe Reis (anthropologists), José Luís Bento Coelho (acoustic engineer) and Vera Mantero (choreographer), a group of young music students develop a creative work around the work of Russian composer Sophia Gubaidulina.
