Dance as a modern art form emerged at the turn of the twentieth century, against the backdrop of consolidating industrial capitalism.

Just as the body and movement of masses were becoming subjected to the dictate of backbreaking machines, modern dance constituted itself around the choreographic exploration of body and movement, liberated from that machinic coercion.The history of modern dance can thus be read as a dialectical opposite of the transformation of commodified labour. Over the last hundred years, that opposition between the coercive and the liberated has crumbled and transformed by the growing flexibilisation and precarisation of labour relations.

The labouring body is increasingly enjoined to be free and enterprising, while the dancing body is increasingly demanded to show itself labouring to justify its privilege to free artistic exploration.

Our opening keynote will retrace the entwined historical trajectories of dance and labour and speculate on what dance portends for the understanding of the contemporary, algorithmically-commanded, on-demand forms of labour.

“Today a true artist is only the artist who can say, ‘for everything else, please address my manager’.

In such contrasting, antagonistic, and variable attempts to remove money, labour, and labour relations from the stage of art representation, there are obvious consensual efforts to explain that art cannot be understood as business as usual, as labour or work – but rather as something completely different. At this point, money appears as creative shame. [...]

However, [...] what will we find if we try to get closer to economic reality of ‘workers’ active in the ever expanding ‘world of art’ in all its domains of (self-)critical negations, transformations, excesses, inclusions, and exclusions only to focus on the very moment when projects and collaborations come to life? How does art-as-ideology inhabit speech used on such occasions?”

Join us for our Saturday keynote speech, where we will reflect on the discourse around love and money in the arts.
