Based in Poznan, Joanna Lesnierowska is a dance writer, curator, and dramaturge. She is best known for setting up Poland’s first regular dance space and choreography development centre, Old Brewery New Dance, which falls under the umbrella of Art Stations, a foundation created by Grażyna Kulczyk. Recently, Kulczyk set up Muzeum Susch, a contemporary art museum in Switzerland where Joanna curates the Acziun Susch choreographic programme. We spoke about the contemporary dance scene in Poland before and after she established her pioneering venue, how she approaches curating a dance programme in a contemporary art museum context, and the importance of maintaining open dialogues between artists and audiences.
