PREVIOUS OPEN CALLS
Open call: Writing about dance (in the time of Corona)
The new project Dance and Performing Arts Criticism in Europe, a collaboration of Czech Dance News and Performing Arts Hub Norway. Between 5th - 8th July 2021 we organize a four-day online seminar for emerging dance critics, which will address the practice of dance criticism, but also the challenges and new ideas appearing during the pandemic.
The workshop will take place between 5th and 8th July 2021. It will contain lectures by experienced dance writers from Czech Republic and Norway, coaching and discussions about the seen performances, the texts and the practice of dance criticism in general. The participants will reflect together what the dance criticism entails today: how to look at dance of different genres and in different formats/media, and how to reflect it in various contexts. They will also discuss new approaches to criticism. Although remaining in their home countries, the participants of the seminar will be able to see selected performances digitally. Based on these viewings, the lectures and discussions, the participants will be invited to produce their own texts – reviews, reports or essays. These texts will be then discussed with the lecturers and within the group. Finally, their texts will be published at the website of Czech Dance News, and their authors will be rewarded accordingly (the fee for text could be between 50 and 150 Euros).
Coaches and lecturers: Anette Therese Pettersen, Petra Dotlačilová and Josef Bartoš, all experienced dance critics of Czech and Norwegian dance scene.
The seminar is for free and open to everybody, previous experience with writing about dance is not required. The language of the seminar is English.
