The non-profit Festival of Contemporary Arts “Tochka Dostupa” will take place between 15 June – 7 August in St. Petersburg, Russia and the programme will include performative, theatrical and public art:

- Performing arts (performances in urban settings)

The festival aims to develop experimental trends in performative, audio-visual and fine arts. The leading Russian and European theatre companies, performers and artists, who explore art in urban settings and work on the brink of different art means, will take part in the festival.

This year, due to the announcement of 2016 the year of Cinema in Russia, for the first time the festival program will include a screening of short films gathered from around the world. This screening aims to broaden the artistic perception of the audience, their interaction with visual arts and to deepen their knowledge of other cultures and ways of seeing the world.

We would like to note that this year's festival screenings are the beginning of the annual event in St Petersburg which aims to become one of the biggest art festivals, and we would be interested in mutual possible projects in the future as well.
