The launch of the latest multilingual MIMOS – Swiss Performing Arts Yearbook on Cindy Van Acker will take place during Das Tanzfest in Geneva on 2 May, accompanied by a performance in the contemporary dance association ADC’s pavilion. June Johnson Newcomer Prize 2022 winners InQdrt, meanwhile, will put on an open-air performance of KATZENSPRUNG, a mix of Parkour and contemporary dance. Marc Oosterhoff / Cie Moost, winner of the June Johnson Newcomer Prize in 2023, will perform Palette(n), a piece for two performers, 20 pallets and a water bottle. Swiss Dance Production 2022 winner Ruth Childs will show Delicate People, a project blending dance and sculpture developed with the artist Cécile Bouffard. Tiziana Conte, winner of a Swiss Performing Arts Award in 2023 for her work promoting dance in Ticino, will present PARTITURAZERO, a work-in-progress performance by Elena Boillat.
