The Co-Organisers

The co-organisers of the German Dance Platform are institutions that have made an impact on the world of contemporary dance and have nurtured dance over a long period of time. Since the beginning of the German Dance Platform in 1994, the co-organisers work together to plan the platforms, which take place every two years, and to determine the host city and the host institution.

In the first years of the festival, the co-organisers were also responsible for programming; however, since the Düsseldorf Dance Platform in 2004, the decision-making has been placed in the hands of a board of advisors which consists of dance professionals, who were in turn elected by the co-organisers.

The co-organisers for the German Dance Platform are:
tanzhaus nrw, Düsseldorf (Bertram Müller); euro-scene Leipzig (Ann-Elisabeth Wolff); JOINT ADVENTURES, Munich (Walter Heun); Künstlerhaus Mousonturm, Frankfurt/ Main (Dieter Buroch); Hebbel am Ufer, Berlin (Bettina Masuch) and tanzWerkstatt Berlin (André Thériault).
