Will Dorner

Born in 1959 in Austria, Willi Dorner has an unusual background, combining modern dance, motion analysis, dance therapy, philosophy, and visual arts. From 1985 to 1992, he worked for various Austrian, French and New York companies. At the same time, he took his first steps as a choreographer and set up his own company in 1999 with which he has produced more than fifteen works for the stage, cinema, galleries, and other spaces. Alongside his company’s international tours, he produces films, showing particular interest in the creation of events giving publics the opportunity to enjoy new aesthetic experiences as well as to look at everyday life, and in particular urban landscape, in a new light. His multi-disciplinary approach also leads him to collaborate with artists and scientists in a wide variety of fields. The work of the Willi Dorner Company on stage or in “in situ” performances is omnipresent in Europe, Africa, America and Asia.
