ANTONIA BAEHR

Antonia Baehr is a choreographer / director, performer and film-maker. What characterises her is a non-disciplinary work and a method of collaboration with different people, using a game-structure with switching roles: each person is alternately director / author and performer for the other one. She graduated in Film- and Media Arts at the Hochschule der Künste Berlin with Valie Export (1996) and obtained a DAAD-grant and a Merit Scholarship for the School of The Art Institute of Chicago. Since 2000 she is based in Berlin. Her productions include Holding hands (2000), Un après-midi (2003), Larry Peacock (2005), Merci (2006), Laugh" (2008) and Over The Shoulder (2009). 2010 sees the development on a new choreography for four interpreters.
