imagetanz 2025

Tickets for imagetanz 2025 are now available! From 15 March to 12 April, the festival will present new positions in choreography and performance. At brut nordwest, studio brut, WUK performing arts, Bears in the Park Art Place, FLUCC Deck and Palais Rössl, international and local artists – including Stina Fors, maria mercedes, Hyeji Nam and Björn Säfsten – will present a varied programme with numerous world and Austrian premieres, workshops, parties and much more.

In the mirror

A portrait with a surreal effect, where multiple overlapping facial features create a distorted depiction of the person. The individual has dark hair and looks directly into the camera. The background is dark, emphasizing the face.

In First Person Plural, Imani Rameses explores the nature of the self at the intersection of African divination and psychoanalysis. Five performers share a body, their identities fragment and reshape themselves. Through dance and embodied practice, the self becomes visible as a changeable boundary. Accompanied by cello, electronics and voice (Marleen Moharitsch), the piece attempts to dissolve fixed contexts - until the self perhaps disappears altogether.

brut accessible – sharing & shaking

A performer lies dramatically on the floor of a dark stage, one arm outstretched, with a surprised facial expression. Above them floats a large inflatable shark with a fierce expression. The scene is set with scattered props, including a single red flip-flop, fabrics, and nets. The lighting creates a mystical, almost surreal atmosphere.

Right at the start of imagetanz 2025, Cleidy Acevedo and Helena Araújo will be focusing on invisible everyday overload in the workshop Quiet emotions? Free your mental load by FLINTA* for FLINTA* and BIPOC on Sun, 16 March. And on Wed,19 March, dancers Katharina Senk / Senki & Theresa Scheinecker / Ray invite you to a dance workshop with Move to the Beat - Stay for the Pizza at brut nordwest followed by a pizza dinner – an opportunity to discover and try out new things through dance and sharing a meal.

Magazin

A pink, insect-like creature with large round eyes and thin limbs lies on a textured pink fabric. The creature has a shiny, almost translucent skin. The background consists of soft, gathered material.

Artwork imagetanz 2025

The artwork for imagetanz 2025 was created by Berlin-based artist Mary-Audrey Ramirez. With her creatures, she creates a timeless and spaceless, post-anthropocentric world without hierarchies. This world eludes our orientation and makes us forget for a moment who we are and why we think we are important.
The space is a small, minimalist theatre hall with a simple, modern aesthetic. The stage has a bright, smooth floor surface and is surrounded by three white walls without any decoration. At the back of the wall, there are three tall, narrow windows that let in a bit of natural light. The ceiling is equipped with a dense grid of spotlights, speakers, and technical installations that ensure the lighting and acoustics of the performance.
