For the second consecutive year UNIMA Euskalherria and the TOPIC of Tolosa have organized the Autumn School, coinciding with the Titirijai Festival from Tolosa. Mapamundi Smail, a course of contemporary animation of objects, figures and images, in which artists from different disciplines can participate: theater artists, dancers, plastic artists, playwriters. “Animation” as opposed to “manipulation”. To animate is to give life to an artistic object, to recognize in it its memory and its suggestions, its resonances and its symbolism, and this is what Joan Baixas a MASTER with capital letters teaches in this course.
