modul-dance
Start date: Jun 1, 2010,

Dance has been in the fore front of European Contemporany art and we would like that it continues to flourish as a confident, innovative and vital contributor to contemporary culture at all levels of engagement, within and across Europe and beyond. With this project we design a flexible and sustainable framework in providing the optimum conditions necessary for independent professional dance artists to create, produce and present the best possible (innovative, and culturally diverse) dance art and to establish trans-institutional and international cooperation as a means of building and strengthening infrastructural support for dance art, related disciplines, and the dance constituency. It is urgent to develop new ways of supporting and nurturing the potential of our artists. The dancers will gain best possible professional advice and offering facilities which they could not get within their local dance scene. Independent dancers in most European countries lack adequate structures and financial means to develop their creations and to make possible to promote themselves meeting with new audiences. This project is to developing new forms of systematic support to artists who are ready to be exposed for new and culturally diverse contexts. Mobility will become an advantage added to their international experience and career. A significant determinant of quality is the length of time required for the careful preparation in accomplishing different phases of the process of art creation (reflection, research, try out, finding the most appropriate: co- artists; place to première and, promoters of the work). Most independent dance artists and companies, usually receive limited subvention locally for a production, usually within a very short time frame. The main purpose, therefore, of our modular system is to address the artist's needs in the process of artistic creation, to offer the best available resources to support dance creation and dissemination.
