The Rose Choreographic School is an experimental research and pedagogy project. We will support a cohort of 13 artists to explore their singular choreographic enquiries and to collectively imagine a school through which knowledges and practices can be developed and shared. There is no set curriculum or syllabus, and no predetermined outcome; the focus is on coming together as a community of artist researchers to discover the conditions we need for speculation and articulation.
We propose a postdisciplinary approach to the question of the choreographic and invite artists from all practices and inclinations for whom the concept of the choreographic is a central concern.
Each cycle of the School lasts two years, during which we offer access to studio spaces, mentoring and a research budget. The Artistic Faculty for this first cycle are Alesandra Seutin, Trajal Harrell and William Forsythe and they will invite engagement with their own research concerns and practices through workshops and seminars. There will be also a podcast series and regular onsite and online meetings to enable the cohort to develop processes of critique and support.
The School is aimed at a postgraduate level but welcomes artists who do not come from traditional training or academic backgrounds. Participation in the School is free, and selection for the thirteen spaces is based on responses to two questions – see the Apply page.
For more information see the FAQs page or visit the Glossary or Publications page where we expand on the ideas underpinning this project.
We are also working in partnership with Goldsmiths, University of London to support a fully funded CHASE (Consortium for the Humanities and the Arts South-East England) collaborative doctoral award on “The four-plus-dimensional Materialities of the Choreographic”. Applications for the doctorate are via Goldsmiths, and the successful applicant will be based at both Goldsmiths and Rose Choreographic School. More information can be found here
