TIPPERARY DANCE

Co-founded by Jazmin Chiodi and Alexandre Iseli, Tipperary Dance is an artist-led organisation, directed by Alexandre Iseli, a dance artist and choreographer driven by a particular vision developed over three decades of artistic practice across Europe and the world... Tipperary Dance's international dance festival is founded in 2010, marked by three peculiarities: it is artist-led, curated, and distant from any sizeable city. Several conclusions are drawn from this state of play: the festival must gather all available partnerships around the County. The festival must rely on creativity to combine resources in a critically under-resourced region and dance sector. Tipperary Dance must build its own regional dance ecology and create momentum to revive an artistic life that will attract both artists and audiences... By giving equal importance to the Art form and its audience, Tipperary Dance aims to articulate the relationship between the public and a professional community of artists..
