LAC. Laboratori Arts Contemplatives

A festival to explore the paths of attention through art, nature and community.

Over a few days, music, thought and dance intertwine with contemplative practice to perceive more deeply, think at other rhythms, inhabit the body and come together around a contemporary ritual.

WHY THIS FESTIVAL

The LAC Festival is born from the dialogue between artistic practice and contemplative practice.

It brings together the LAC’s artists and points of reference, with the aim of opening new horizons for imagination and life.

An event that has evolved over the years and taken on an interdisciplinary character, embodying our commitment to a deep artistic and sensory experience, shot through with joyful attention.

What inspires us

A time and a space set apart from our usual rhythm, to reconnect with ourselves, with others and with the world in a deeper, more attentive and more caring way.

We need moments not ruled only by haste, distraction or consumption.

We need to listen, think, feel and be together. To meet each other from a place of meaning and of porous enjoyment of the present moment. With openness and availability.

The LAC Festival brings together artists of jazz and improvised music, flamenco and other disciplines in a space designed for listening closely: limited capacity, an open-air stage, and the sound of nature as a cradle.

A contemporary ritual

Concerts and soundscapes that invite us to perceive sound, silence and surroundings with greater presence.

Conversations that bring us closer to other ways of feeling, relating and inhabiting the world.

Works in which movement, gesture and presence remind us that we are vulnerable, sensitive bodies, always in relation.
