modul-dance

an artist’s-eye view

VIENNA

Modul-dance is a multi-annual cooperation project with the participation of 20 European dancehouses from 16 countries.

 One of the project’s key elements is the promotion of mobility,

so that artists receiving its support follow itineraries across Europe to develop their creative work and present it to different

audiences.  

Each of the guides in this collection shows a city from the viewpoint of a local artist, who proposes his or her own

particular route to artists in transit, seeking to put them in connection with their host city. While these city routes

share some basic features, each one is different and in their differences lies a wealth of gazes, aesthetics, approximations

to the local and much more. In a word, they form a mirror of the diversity that modul-dance has always fostered.

 The Vienna city guide has been possible thanks to the curatorial

work of Tanzquartier Wien, a partner in the modul-dance project.

After her diploma in dance at the Conservatoire National Supérieur de Danse in Lyon and her studies in French literature, she finished her apprenticeship at the Trisha Brown Company in New York. In 2001 she founded the Wiener Tanz- und Kunstbewegung association in Vienna and created several choreographies like the solo A?
