About
Since its inception in 1998 Peter Svenzon has created almost 30 works and collaborated with a substantial number of artists, musicians, directors and actors from many differing theatrical genres. His own musical compositions, often electronic in form, provide the basis onto which invited musicians can play in real time. The company has placed great importance on its peripatetic collaborations and residences both at home and abroad often focussing its attention on work with young people. Workshops, lectures and projects aimed at finding a new dance audience have always been a cornerstone in the working commitment of Art of Spectra.
Peter Svenzon and Ulrika Fernqvist, both with backgrounds in music and dance, have with the formation of Art of Spectra 15 years ago searched for an open multi-facetted expression where dance, theatre, music and graphic art become a new hybrid form of theatre with a quality almost within the realms of the cinematographic sphere.
Peter has created dance works for Gothenburg Opera and Dansens Hus among others, throughout his career he also choreographed theatre with directors such as Lars Norén, Sweden's most prominent playwrights.
