The recently founded MA Studies in „Choreography
and Performance“ and the Graduate Centre for the Study of
Culture of the Justus-Liebig-University Giessen will
be holding two conferences with similar subjects but at the
same time different foci. The international symposium „Communications: Dance,
Politics and Co-Immunity“
of the MA studies in „Choreography and
Performance“
dedicates itself to the question, in what extent dance, in its history
as well as in its contemporary development, is tightly linked to
concepts of the political. The conference „thinking
- resisting - reading the political“
of the Graduate Centre for the Study
of Culture will reflect on possibilities and consider manifestations of
various modes of resistance in (and through) aesthetics.
The symposium „Communications: Dance, Politics and
Co-Immunity“ is taking place with kind support by the
Deutsche Forschungsgesellschaft DFG, Tanzplan Deutschland and the
Hessische Theaterakademie.
The conference „thinking - resisting - reading the
political“ is taking place with kind support of the
International Graduate Centre for the Study of Culture (GCSC), the
Center for Media and Interactivity of the JLU, the Giessener
Hochschulgesellschaft and the
Justus-Liebig-University Giessen.
The Festival "Dance & Politics" is taking place with
kind support of the
Kulturamt Gießen, the Institute for Applied Theatre Studies
and the Hessische Theaterakademie.
