The complexity of Care
Following her last production Thank You Very Much (2019) and several intense dialogues held with the ensemble and the team as well as with rabbi, scientist, and activist Julia Watts Belser, Claire Cunningham began to develop clear framing structures for the different meanings of Care within each activity:
From the desire to deepen those questions with the tanzhaus nrw team, the Choreography of Care symposium comes, which will take place in March 2022. Until then, we would like to introduce you to all participating artists and share initial thoughts on the topic of Care.

Notes on Design
The pink ink stamps you’ve seen throughout these issues are marks made with the rubber ferrules (feet) of Claire’s crutches. The background textures are taken from images submitted by each contributor to accompany their written text.
