Books on the Move, the traveling and online bookstore for dancers, movers and thinkers will be present throughout the duration of the festival. The bookstore will be set up in the Gallery of Le Quartz theater.
This nomadic bookstore, founded in Berlin and today based in Bordeaux is dedicated to the inquiry of dance, performance studies and movement practices. Our collection brings together books on choreography, artist writings, biographies, theoretical essays as well as texts on somatic practices.
