MOVEMENT ART FESTIVAL

Welcome to the first edition of the Movement Art International Dance Festival, where extraordinary performances push traditional boundaries. Combining dance with visual art, music, poetry, singing and more, the festival invites the audience on an inspiring journey. Each curated piece is selected for its emotional depth and thought-provoking nature. The festival will take place from 26th to 28th September 2024 at the Europahalle Trier in Germany and the Mierscher Theater in Mersch, Luxembourg, and will feature seven exceptional performances by six renowned international dance companies.

We underline the importance of cultural exchange and unity. The festival brings together people from Germany and Luxembourg as well as guests from all over the world and creates a platform for shared artistic experiences and mutual understanding. This international collaboration fosters integration and openness and enables audiences to appreciate and celebrate local and international culture and artistic expression. The festival promotes cultural exchange and inspires local dancers through workshops. The Movement Art International Dance Festival offers an unforgettable experience where dance unites cultures and demonstrates the transformative power of artistic expression. Join us every two years as we celebrate contemporary dance in an extraordinary way.

Hani Dance, an innovative movement art company, was born in Germany in 2016 and has since found its home in Luxembourg City. Led by visionary Saeed Hani, a Syrian-German choreographer and director, the company transcends traditional boundaries. Saeed believes movement art is a versatile medium capable of exploring human history. Drawing inspiration from objects, painting, photography, environmental music, visual art, and human stories, he creates moving images that deeply resonate. Themes like spirit, power, war, walls, psychology, and nudity are central to his work, celebrating the human form and challenging societal norms. Hani Dance invites audiences to reflect on the human condition in a visually impactful manner.
