incorporated into Kulturveranstaltungs-GmbH in 1992, is dedicated to supporting and presenting new
approaches and works in the field of international contemporary dance that are open to influences from
other media and experiment with new forms. In particular, this includes work in the zone between dance
and performance, work that does not grasp contemporary dance as an isolated discipline, but rather as an
artistic means of coming to terms with the world we live in, works whose means of expression are based on
movement and the human body. In addition, dance films and video work are an integral part of
TanzWerkstatt’s program. A special focus is placed on process-oriented projects and an international
exchange of ideas between artists.
