WEBRES 2020 – How can dance journalism support the work of independent artists?

A reflective document written by Katie Hagan, dance art journal and Rachel Elderkin, Dance Dialogues Podcast. 

Introduction

Following our WebRes event for Siobhan Davies Dance, we felt it important to create a document that highlights some considerations that artists and writers can take together going forward. 

As context for the following document, our question ‘how can dance journalism support the work of independent artists’ was intended to open a dialogue around how there might be more interaction between dance journalism and the practices of independent artists — particularly in terms of the innovative and experimental ways in which this dialogue can be considered.
