Introduction

An interactive, online workshop enters the debate on inclusive art, diving deep into disabled artists’ own statements about their work and activism.

The successful audience development workshops held during the 2019–2020 season are set to continue in slightly revised form, this time online.

Rather than taking a specific performance as its core theme, this year’s workshop will center on materials springing from the artistic process itself (through an interview, and a video with extracts from choreographies), and on a direct channel of communication with professional disabled dancer and choreographer Tanja Erhart from Austria, who will both inspire and form a foundation for all topics to be discussed, over and above inclusive dance.

Led by Medie Megas, the workshop is based on an interview conducted with Tanja Erhart. Online meetings will focus on the activist aspects of her work, with the artist herself explaining and analyzing – in depth – the terms with which she articulates her activist discourse, thus helping us understand the political stakes of inclusive art.
