Movements of Interweaving is a rich collection of essays exploring the concept of interweaving performance cultures in the realms of movement, dance, and corporeality. Focusing on dance performances as well as on scenarios of cultural movements on a global scale, it not only challenges the concept of intercultural dance performances, but through its innovative approach also calls attention to the specific qualities of "interweaving" as a form of movement itself.

Divided into four sections, this volume features an international team of scholars together developing a new critical perspective on the cultural practices of movement, travel and migration in and beyond dance.

Gabriele Brandstetter is co-director of the International Research Center "Interweaving Performance Cultures" and Professor of Theater and Dance Studies at the Freie Universität Berlin. Gerko Egert is a postdoctoral fellow in the department of Applied Theater Studies at Justus-Liebig-Universität Giessen.
