Since fall 2020, the steering group "TanzArchiv Berlin", which emerged from the Round Table Dance, has been working on the development of a living archive. In the process, strategies of remembering, collecting and preserving are being reformulated and the so-called canon critically questioned. After a survey of the contemporary dance scene (2021) and the symposium SENSING THE ARCHIVE(s) - SKETCHING THE ARCHIVE(S) in April 2022, the team is currently dedicated to artistic research of various Berlin dance histories in cooperation with four partners. The ArchivKompliz:innen, their projects and the work of the steering group will be presented in a talk as part of Tanz im August - On the Sofa. The event will be held in German.
Location: Tanz im August, HAU2 Hebbel am Ufer / Bibliothek im August
