A Book of Dances is a collection of written choreographies by Finnish-based artists Anne Naukkarinen, Laura Cemin, Mikko Niemistö, and Marika Peura, and Swedish-based artists BamBam Frost, Ofelia Jarl Ortega, and Pontus Pettersson.

The book is initiated and edited by choreographer, performer, and visual artist Anne Naukkarinen, and compiles some of the current thinking amongst their peers within expanded choreography. A Book of Dancesbrings attention to the contradictions, translations, and intimate relationships between dance and language.

The book launch takes place during Moving in November at Kunsthalle Helsinki, where the artist-contributors will gather for a facilitated discussion. Free admission to the launch event by pre-registration here.

A Book of Dances is published by Moving in November and Teatterin Uusi Alku kirjasto T/U/A (Theater’s New Base Library).
