Wild Cards

residency and study slots

The LLB project partners offer slots (e.g. in education programmes, residency spaces with technical and dramaturgical support, workshops) to be proposed to emerging/mid-career dance artists coming from another European country than their own. Those Wild Card slots are announced via public call by every coorganiser. As all members of a relevant national scene are eligible to apply, this procedure helps to identify new promising artists. The coorganisers develop “privileged partnerships”- based on pairing up of two coorganisers during a year - ensuring multiple exchanges over the 5-year period of the project as well as offering the relevant national scenes different possibilities every year. The Wild Card slots are not restricted to artistic projects but can also include arts administration, teaching or dramaturgy.
