• Residencies

    • PACT Zollverein has been supporting residencies for the development of artistic projects and productions since 2002. The Residency Programme is open to professional artists from home and abroad who work in the areas of dance, performance, media arts or music. The recipients are offered a work space and local accommodation, and according to individual need, they can take advantage of various kinds of production support, such as dramaturgy, technical assistance, project management as well as press and publicity.

       

  • Atelier

    • Since it was founded PACT Zollverein has, in the framework of the ATELIER series, offered emerging and established choreographers, dancers, performers, fine artists and musicians a chance to present their work to the general public during a shared evening length programme. 

  • Open classes

    • We are pleased to announce that as well as modern classes we will then also be offering regular complementary classes in GYROKINESIS®, the Alexander Technique and Yoga. For more details please see the monthly class schedules.

  • Choreographic Dialogues

    • Initiated by Thomas Lehmen and PACT Zollverein in 2009, the next edition of ›Choreographic Dialogues‹ in summer 2011 invites regional and international artists to participate in an intensive several day artistic exchange of practice.

  • Contact Improvisation Jam

    • Contact Improvisation is a form of dance improvisation in which points of physical contact provide the starting point for exploring weight transfer, counter balance, momentum, gravity and suspension. It is about freeing the body from habitual movement patterns and concepts, trusting intuition and spontaneous interaction in movement and exploiting the rich possibilities of the present moment.
