Siobhan Davies Studios is looking for an experienced Artistic Director/s to lead the organisation, bringing the wealth of independent dance practice to the widest and most diverse community of audiences.
UK based Siobhan Davies Dance was founded in 1988 by pioneering choreographer Siobhan Davies CBE. Under her auspices Siobhan Davies Dance evolved from being a national and international touring dance company into Siobhan Davies Studios: an investigative contemporary art organisation, widely regarded as the UK leader of investigative and interdisciplinary work in dance and choreography. The organisation is especially respected for evolving relationships between dance and visual arts through the UK and internationally.
While she will continue to work artistically, Siobhan Davies will step down as Artistic Director of SDS this year. Among other projects for 2020 and 2021, she is producing a film with long time collaborator David Hinton to celebrate her seventieth birthday and the seventy works she has made so far. Based on her Transparencies practice, this film looks at a collection of images significant to her thinking and doing throughout her career. The premiere is planned for 2021.
In the current political and economic context of increasing challenge and rapid change a clear approach is essential. Siobhan Davies Studios believes that the resources of choreography are invaluable in navigating this moment. Siobhan Davies Studios is rooted in a community of creators and audiences who experiment and collaborate to investigate and create: in order to meet the demands of their community both now and in the future, Siobhan Davies Studios is currently working to reimagine the way in which they work in order to give artists the freedom and autonomy that they need. Most specifically Siobhan Davies Studios is considering a shift in their producing and programming processes to allow for a more flexible approach.

This is a fantastic opportunity for somebody. Even I have done workshops at Siobhan Davies Studios in my capacity as a volunteer performer.
As Siobhan Davies is stepping back as a director and Richard Alston retires his company and departs The Place, 2020 perhaps marks the year that British contemporary dance reaches full maturity, as both are pioneers and original founders.
