Project Type:

Documentation

INSTITUTION:

OfTa Offensive Tanz Berlin

DATE:

March-August 2020

CONTRIBUTIONS:

Documentation - Interviews - Research - Editorial Assistance

TASKS:

Documentation of individual events within the framework of the TANZPAKT Stadt-Land-Bund project Offensive Tanz für junges Publikum.

INTENTION:

The two-year project develops innovative dance and mediation formats for people between 0 and 18 years. As an association of four experienced partners from the contemporary dance and theater scene for children and young people (PURPLE - International Dance Festival for Young Audiences, TANZKOMPLIZEN, Theater Strahl and Theater o.N.), they improve the exchange and networking of players in this field and sustainably establish dance for young audiences in the Berlin public sphere.

CONCLUSIONS:

Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, many events of Offensive Tanz had to be postponed or alternative solutions had to be found. Nevertheless, this gave me the opportunity for exciting interviews and conversations with the participating artists and you can read them on the OfTa website blog. My last post in August 2020 was an outlook for the fall:

In the program of Offensive Tanz, the topics of diversity and equality are therefore dealt with intensively - be it in a conceptual-curatorial, artistic, pedagogical or mediating way.
