Apogee Artists

Celebrating Artistic Excellence

Apogee Artists provides a global series of performance events and media productions where the fruit of both Apogee’s Awards and Academy programs may be celebrated and renewed.

Apogee Artists programs present Apogee Awards laureates to the world and provide them with invaluable experience and exposure. Apogee Artists programs also create opportunities to discover new generations of emerging artists for future inclusion in Apogee programs.

Thus, Apogee Artists programs serve as the culmination of the Foundation’s virtuous circle of excellence.

Apogee World Stage of Performing Arts

Apogee Artists produces full scale performing arts festivals for music, dance and drama around the globe to showcase elite performing arts talent on the world stage.

These festivals are intended to form an alternative to competitions for the world’s most talented performing artists. The Foundation’s belief is that performing artists can best achieve their fullest potential cooperatively and in appreciation of one another’s unique talents, rather than placed in opposition to one another, and so all participants presenting world class performances as judged by an elite international jury will “win” — and will receive awards and recognition reflecting their great abilities.

Apogee Art Works

Through the Foundation’s Artists in Residence program, Apogee engages world class composers, choreographers, authors, instructors, directors, designers and other elite professionals involved in the performing arts to develop original materials for Apogee World Stage productions and to show that, indeed, art works.

Apogee Artists in Residence

In 2005, Apogee began its formal program of Artists in Residence.

Through this program, Apogee engages world class composers, choreographers, authors, instructors, directors, designers and other elite professionals involved in the performing arts to develop original materials for Foundation programs.

Media & Technology

Beginning in 2007, Apogee has forged a global collaboration with the London and Los Angeles based media & technology group: Aurience Limited.

The aim of this collaboration is to promote performing arts excellence around the world through film and television, interactive technologies, recorded media and live event productions. In fulfilling this aim, the two organizations now share personnel, know-how and proprietary programs to develop new synergies between the power of the performing arts and the penetration of electronic media. Jointly created Apogee-Aurience media & technology productions are designed to foster new levels of appreciation for, and participation in, the life and work of elite performing artists.

These programs can serve the Foundation’s mission and the interest of its beneficiaries and benefactors in many ways: increasing their exposure, knowledge and opportunities among naturally synergistic fields and cultivating new awareness of and markets for their talents. Apogee’s media & technology programs also offer the opportunities for beneficiaries, volunteers and professionals to undertake internships and residencies while working in this crossover area bridging the elite levels of the arts and media industries.
