This special networking evening will take place at Moderna Museet on the beautiful island of Skeppsholmen. Served with light refreshments, delegates will have the chance to meet and greet the ICORN residential artists in Sweden – Arya Aramnejad, Justina, Duaa Kamel and Abdalla Basher – and can choose between attending a powerful dance battle performance or a visit to the famous art collections of Moderna Museet.


Showcase Battle between dance genres – street, contemporary and salsa

We invite you to experience a fully improvised, cross-genre exhibition battle, showcasing groups of dancers from different genres on the same stage. Under the musical influence of the DJ, and the guidance of the host, the dancers will enter the floor to exchange their craft, highlight both their similarities and differences and to make room for something new. The performance is curated by Riksteatern, and the concept is created by Afra Hosseini and Alexander Dam in collaboration with 12 dancers. The performance will be held in the Auditorium, which has a capacity of 294 guests.


Visiting the collections

Moderna Museet has one of Europe’s finest collections of modern and contemporary art. It includes key works by Pablo Picasso, Ljubov Popova, Salvador Dalí, Dorothea Tanning, Niki de Saint Phalle, Meret Oppenheim, Robert Rauschenberg, Donald Judd and Irving Penn, along with works by contemporary practising artists.


Restaurant

Delegates can also meet with colleagues in the museum restaurant which has panoramic views that allow you to take in Stockholm’s water landscape.
