Britta Wirthmüller
The SCA would like to welcome choreographer and dancer , who is a visiting scholar from the (Hochschul眉bergreifendes Zentrum Tanz Berlin or HZT) in Berlin, on a scholarship from the German Academic Exchange Service (). Wirthm眉ller will be using the SCA as her Canadian homebase as she does research on the German choreographer, dancer, artistic director, and teacher , who lived and worked in Montr茅al, Quebec, from 1944 to 1955. As Wirthm眉ller describes it, her project, Tracing Ruth Sorel, explores "notions of distance & proximity, history & present, the personal & the global through the dancing body and choreography." While at 天美mv天美, Britta will be working closely with the SCA's Henry Daniel on her research, helping to establish closer connections between the SCA and the HZT. Welcome, Britta!
