September 19 · 18:00 · Main stage of the International Center for Contemporary Art
Twenty years later, GOGOLFEST speaks of life awakening and rebirth. We learn again to dream, to strive, to create, to restore our own world and to live. DakhaBrakha reflects the beauty of the process of this transformation, leading with its music through new circles of being, spiral after spiral.
“The Circle of Life” is a synthetic musical-performative event in which music, body performance, dance and video art merge into one multicultural event, balancing on the edge of dimensions. On a vertical stage, performers address eternal human questions that always remain timeless. Despite everything, we live, create, dream. This is a musical ritual in which the ethno-chaos of the DakhaBrakha band’s sound is intertwined with visual art, creating a space where the past and the future meet at one point, paying tribute to memory and tribute to the present.
