2025

 

Miloš Cile Mitić, member of the International Dance Council-CID, choreographer, stage director, art historian and founder of the Art Ensemble SKOVRAN (Belgrade, Serbia).  

From 2018 to 2025 I served as Artistic Director of the National Ensemble Venac (Kosovo&Metohija), working in a politically complex and multi-ethnic environment that demanded artistic diplomacy, cross-cultural collaboration, and creation under sensitive social conditions.

Creator of an independent platform Cile Mitić Art  for development of educational and performance programs aiming to re-define the identity of contemporary staged folklore.

 Masterclasses & Lectures

  • Masterclass series “Performer on Stage : Old school with a new purpose” – technical and stylistic training based on the Serbian/Yugoslav school of staged folk dance.
  • Lectures & talks – topics include History of Scenic Folklore, Artistic Identity in Transitional Societies, and From Fresco to Stage – the Concept of Revived Images (related to Bata Grbic’s program “Fresca Viva” and my choreodrama “700”).
  • Wellness Folklore Program – dance-based body and rhythm training for non-professionals and cultural institutions.

 Choreographic Work

My signature stage form is the choreodrama – a synthesis of traditional movement, theatrical direction and visual symbolism and classical choreographic miniatures.

Selected works:

  • 700 (2022) – metaphorical journey through Serbian history and Monastery Gracanica 7 centuries.

The Art Ensemble SKOVRAN represents a new generation of professional artists continuing the legacy of Olga Skovran, bridging heritage and contemporary expression. We organize auditions, educational programs for youth (“Mala akademija igre Skovran”/”Small dance academy Skovran“), and touring performances.
