Artist and choreographer Meg Stuart starts a residency at S.M.A.K. in the autumn of 2026. As part of the project, a section of the museum is transformed into a collective laboratory: a living archive that explores Stuart’s practice and that of her dance company, Damaged Goods, by situating the studio in a public space.
Through open working sessions and interventions, the residency offers visitors the opportunity to experience the museum as a place for togetherness. The public is welcome to watch, listen, and engage in conversation.
Meg Stuart (b. 1965, New Orleans, USA) is a choreographer, director and dancer who lives and works in Berlin and Brussels. Her work is driven by experimentation and artistic cross-pollination; it challenges the limits of the body and broadens our view of reality. With her company Damaged Goods, founded in 1994, she has created more than thirty productions, ranging from solos and duets to choreographies for multiple dancers, video works, site-specific projects and improvisation.
