Crossing Borders Talks
About the talks
A series of conversations with guest artists who whether through residence, artistic choices, or fellowship opportunity bring experiences and concerns to share from across geographic or artistic borders.
The talks have been organised in collaboration with the Graduate School of London Contemporary Dance School. The series aims to offer fresh vantage points on artistic practice and environment, and feed in to current debates around the UK dance ecology. Artists will be in discussion with Gill Clarke or Sue Maclennan unless otherwise stated.
