.Dance & The Outdoors Symposium was a two day digital conference bringing together practitioners, producers and presenters of outdoor dance who explored how artists are creating work for public space.
You can find video recordings from the event with accompanying transcripts below.
With insights from Rosemary Lee, Luca Silvestrini, Jeanefer Jean Charles, Satchie Noro, Stopgap and many more, the symposium looked at a range of practices in locations from urban to rural and in contexts that covered touring to site-specific to participant-led.
These stimulating panel sessions shined a spotlight on the wealth of outdoor dance practice and explored how this distinctive yet diverse field is contributing to the development of dance – bringing new audiences, new approaches and creating interventions that transform and disrupt our relationship with the world around us.
