Since 2014, Jenny Beyer has dedicated the format of the OPEN STUDIOS to the inclusion and involvement of audience members in artistic processes. With “Geben-Nehmen-Brauchen”, she will now focus on expanding the concept of audience. The question that will be at the center of the next three years revolves around the multidirectionality of mediation with the aim of opening up new audiences. The OFFENEN STUDIOS will be more strongly networked through cooperation with Hamburg district centers. In addition, a residency program will be established, that offers interested parties the opportunity to get to know the perspectives of (international) artists. In exchange with dance makers, participants of the OPEN STUDIOS, students, future dance mediators and (educational) institutions, tools for audience development and especially audience involvement will be developed and shared from Hamburg.
