Arquitectura

As an art form, performance is highly collaborative. It is a social interaction and dialogue between the artist and viewer, where the exchange of ideas is unique to each event. Traditional auditoriums provide a space for the performers as well as the audience, but cultural exchange isn't necessarily limited to a traditional performance stage. Classrooms, hallways and lobbies provide a similar opportunity for communications. Moreover, it is in these unconventional spaces that the artist and the audience are not separated by the usual layout of the theater. In outside plazas and lobbies anyone can be the performer, and everyone can experience the work. As such, cultural centers can transform their community by offering a forum for participation, and striving to make cultural experiences a part of everyday life
