Sujettes and SAPA present "Matrimoine in motion: Archives and Heritage of Contemporary Dance"
19.9.2025
Fondation SAPA, Avenue Villamont 4, 1005 Lausanne

Why are women so little visible in archives, even though they have significantly shaped the history of dance?

A guided tour through the SAPA archives sheds light on the traces that women have left behind in Swiss contemporary dance.

This will be followed by a panel discussion with Diane Decker and Marie-Jane Otth (choreographers from Lausanne), Dr. Julia Wehren (theater scholar and dance researcher) and Céline Bösch (Co-Head of Archive and Competence Center at SAPA). The focus will be on questions of memory, visibility and the passing on of choreographic matrimoine.

More information will follow. The date and exact time will be confirmed.
