CRITERION – a critical platform

With the texts published about the Mladi Levi festival, Criterion is entering its third season. The critical platform edited by Alma R.

In the contemporary performance art landscape characterized by lack of written reflections, the Criterion’s contribution is to provide the artists and audience with a variety of different feedbacks regarding the performance, which are not about confrontation, but rather about different perspectives, readings, as well as ratings.
