Tanzfabrik Berlin was one of the partners within the Erasmus+ EU project Curating in Context.
The project aimed to develop curatorial training with a strong focus on social impact through the involvement of local, regional and international actors, targeting individuals as well as cultural and civic organisations. The project aimed to create educational resources and methods for use within the university and for the further education of cultural workers and citizens through strategies resulting from practices of performing arts and curators. Through methods of cross-pollination of know-how and best practices from the performing arts and civil society, the project also aimed to collate the impact of the cultural and civil sectors on society. New formats of creating, presenting, disseminating and valorising artistic works are needed to match current local and global entanglements.
Curating in Context created knowledge and opportunities for future curators to critically reflect and address different socio-political and economic contexts and develop curatorial methods to rethink the practices of performing arts in relation to the civil sector.
