The Democracy of Beings is the second of two programmes, following an initial research phase (DM1) that ran from June 2015 to March 2017. You can find details of DM1 here.
In this period of accelerated change, there is an urgent need for professionalism, shared vocabulary and a coherent conceptual framework that makes sense of the many different approaches to audience engagement.
In Dancing Museums – The Democracy of Beings, individuals and arts organisations share, improve, develop and transfer skills and knowledge needed to broaden and deepen connections and relationships with audiences.
The practice-led research group, composed of artists, dance organisations, museums and universities from seven countries, looks at how the presence of dance can offer new ways of experiencing art and heritage and help audiences and visitors engage both intellectually and viscerally with artworks. The knowledge and experience generated throughout the project will empower the organisations and artists involved with the skills needed to implement meaningful audience development projects beyond the duration of the project.
These practices will be shared and documented in each location to build evidence and ensure consistency of data and anecdotal information.
Coronavirus update:
The period of constant change we have recently been living through, where we are unable to meet in person, has made it necessary to explore new ways of working together, new ways to continue our collective research and new ways to make certain events public. We have decided to use this time as a phase of experimentation. Everyone involved in Dancing Museums is focusing on what and how we can build differently. It is a challenging and exciting task, an experiment that brings many opportunities to try new ideas that would never emerge in a normal situation.
As a result, the workshop in Prague went ahead with a programme that allowed for attendance without the necessity of travelling physically to Prague. The transformed programme provided a meeting-space to share experiences and ideas and to think together.

The new ECHOLOT episode is on its way!
In the 7th episode of the series we question how does dance and movement leads to more in-depth engagement with museum visitors? This is the question explored by dance artist Ingrid Berger Myhre, dramaturg Monica Gillette and art educator Gill Hart. They discuss how dancing in a museum brings visitors closer to performers and proximity to the perceived stillness of art works interrupts and in effect – changes – codified codes of gallery behavior. The conversation is based on the European Union funded project Dancing Museums, a research project bringing together artists, dance organizations, museums, universities and research centers from seven countries to explore ways in which working together might result in more powerful interpretations or experiences of art. #soundofsilence #muzeumsusch #artstationsfoundationch #acziun #engadin #echolot #stillnessandmotion #new #awakeningawareness #dancingmuseums #gillhart #ingridbergermyhre #monicagillete #elisabettabisaro

Aquest matí, Carme Torrent i Anabela Pareja Robinson, col·laboradores de quimbigas per al projecte #DancingMuseums, ballant en una de les entrades que els ha donat una de les treballadores de la fundaciomiro
El Quim té una pregunta per a vosaltres…
Quan creieu que esteu entrant en un edifici? Quan comenceu a pensar que esteu entrant en un edifici?
Ens ajudeu?
quimbigas , artista en residència de la Fundació Miró, segueix aquesta setmana la seva recerca en el marc del projecte europeu Dancing Museums juntament amb el #MercatFlors. Centra la seva mirada en la idea de “dins i fora”, i ho farà als voltants de l’edifici de la Miró i el Mercat
Bigas està treballant i inspirant-se amb el llibre 'Miró en escena', on en algunes de les seves pàgines parla de #dansa
També veiem dibuixos que hi ha ara mateix a la
#FundacióMiró dins l'exhibició d'Antoni Llena #ConstellacióLlena, una selecció formada per 150 peces del fons de la Fundació, que inclou algunes peces que són l'origen de les obres més conegudes de Miró i d'altres que l'artista va repetir durant anys sense arribar a materialitzar-les
#DancingMuseums és un projecte europeu d’investigació d’acció dissenyat per fomentar i mantenir col·laboracions a llarg termini entre organitzacions de dansa, museus, universitats i comunitats locals per tal de desenvolupar programes artístics i culturals inspiradors i duradors

A brief moment of calm… This custodian is on the phone with foregin performer, who was supposed to be in Prague, performing in museum, she works in. I wouldn’t expect it to get somewhat intimate. Very interesting project made by ondrovatereza & tanecpraha & ghmp.cz . My thanks for the opportunity to be a small part of it. #ghmp #tanecpraha #terezaondrova #custodian #bilkovavila #phonecall #dancingmuseums #masakomatsushita

V GHMP jsme včera měli dlouhý, náročný, ale překrásný den!
Tanečníky #dancingmuseums z 5 evropských zemí jsme spojili s našimi kustody a udělali si telefonickou prohlídku našich objektů.
Tam, kde vznikla jazyková bariéra, pomohla tlumočnice a obě strany si odnesly nezapomenutelný zážitek.
Poznáváte naše kustody na fotkách od Vojty Brtnického? 🙂
Děkujeme za spolupráci tanecpraha a ondrovatereza
