Dance Company

The Dresden-based dance company shot AG consists of the three dancer-choreographers Nora Schott, Petra Steinert, and Ariane Thalheim and the institution TENZA-Schmiede. The company has worked for several years straight in the area of contemporary dance in Dresden. The focus of its productions is on developing a language of movement that communicates by means of mosaic-like images. The body as a means of expression is used in his full range of nuances, producing artistically ambitious quality by paying attention to details. The parallels to the Pop Art movement are not coincidental. Constructive deconstruction of classical models and ingrained clichés causes the familiar to be see in unusual images. In the diversity of contemporary dance, shot AG calls its style, which falls somewhere between heavy irony and undramatic depiction of movement, “electrosoft.” In November 2005 Schieß nicht auf fremde Röckchen at the Forum Neues Musiktheater.
