Meeting Points III - call out for applications

in partnership with Tanzbüro München

International
Deadline: 15.10.2023
Published: 11.09.2023

The international exchange project Meeting Points began in 2019 as a collaboration between Tanzbüro München and The Work Room. Supporting connections and dialogue between artists across borders is at the heart of this ongoing partnership. We now invite applications for the third edition in 2024.

Meeting Points will support four independent choreographers (2 from Munich and 2 from Scotland) to come together to share practice, research ideas and exchange working methods outwith the pressure of production. It will take the form of two one-week research labs, bringing the artists together in Munich, in March 2024 and again in Glasgow, in May 2024. As well as studio time, there will be the opportunity for the artists to see work together, learn about their artform in each country and build new networks. Through this project we are continuing the cooperative relationship between The Work Room and Tanzbüro München, as well as seeding creative collaborations between independent choreographers in Scotland and Germany.

We are now seeking applications from Work Room members interested in participating in this project. Selected artists will participate in:

  • A research lab in Munich, 3 – 9 March 2024
  • A research lab in Glasgow, 7 – 13 May 2024
  • A series of virtual meetings to prepare, develop and evaluate the project throughout
  • An event as part of each encounter, in Glasgow and Munich, to share practice with our wider communities of artists and public

 

Each artist will receive:

  • A fee of £1900 for participating in the project 
  • Travel, accommodation and per diems for the research lab in Munich, including cover costs that allow for slow travel or fewer flights
  • Tickets for selected performances in Glasgow and Munich

Additional financial support is available to meet access needs where required.
