Project description

CoP will investigate contemporary dancers’ socio-economical position and its influence on their production processes in Brussels and Berlin. The project will discuss to what extent one may speak of precariousness in the contemporary dance scenes of these two cities, which can be seen as creative capitals of Mid- and Western Europe.
