Petra Zanki The cycle of works entitled Antibodies started in 2009 and was initiated by Croatian dance artist Petra Zanki (Zagreb) and German dance artist Britta Wirthmüller (Leipzig). The first part of this three part body of work Holding on to... was awarded 1st prize on the 9th Platform for Emerging Choreographers. The second performance in this cycle, Vierfüsser, premiered in Liepzig in December 2010 and subsequently presented at Zagreb Dance Centre has been invited to be presented at the festival Wunder Der Praerie in Mannheim and also at TaznQuartier in Vienna. The two artists are currently collaborating on the third work: Antibodies #3 1 /2 & 2 /2.

The first of the solos, resulting from this residency will premiere later in November 2011, at Zagreb Dance Centre. ---------------------------- Petra Zanki's blog: http://othersproduction.noblogs.org ----------------------------  Petra Zanki & Tea Tupajić are presenting their video installation 'Playing with Objects' at the Perforacije festival in Zagreb 17-26th October 2011.
