Contact Collaborations Inc

 

CONTACT QUARTERLY, journal of dance, improvisation, performance, and contemporary movement arts is the longest living, independent, artist-made, not-for-profit, reader-supported magazine devoted to the dancer's voice.

Founded in 1975, Contact Quarterly began as a forum for discussion of the emerging dance form contact improvisation. While serving as a meeting ground for a worldwide network of contact improvisers, from its earliest days, CQ has grown to include writings and interviews on postmodern and contemporary experimental dance, somatic movement practices, improvisational dance, mixed-abilities dance, teaching methods, creative process and performance.

Providing a platform for seasoned and emerging artists and educators to communicate and dialogue about their work, CQ is a singular record of the developments in contemporary movement practices and plays an active role in supporting the artists and creative forms that appear in (and reach beyond) its pages.  

For 40 years, we have brought fresh perspectives, interviews and dialogues between artists, and powerful images of movement to our community of readers. Your donation will help us continue to bring you CQ’s biannual print publications and online editorial content, as well as realize new projects such as making our back-issues available online and upgrading our website.  Your support will also provide subsidized artist and student rate subscriptions and local artist talks between Contact Quarterly's authors and regional performers.
 
We greatly appreciate your contribution. Your generosity keeps us moving!
