Stephan Herwig

"...Stephan Herwig is not someone whose art screams or vies for accessibility with pop appeal. But it is precisely this calmness – with which he has been producing pieces consistently since 2006 while developing his own aesthetics – that sets a relieving and necessary sign in a world in which there is currently too much screaming going on from all sides...."
Excerpt from the jury judgement on the awarding of the Förderpreises für Tanz 2018 of the city of Munich to Stephan Herwig.

In 2021 Stephan Herwig celebrated his first 15 years of choreography, since 2006 he created 15 full-length pieces.
„the sanctuary project" was presented at Tanztendenz Munich. The following full-length pieces were all supported by the city of Munich: "Alien" (2007), "Rebirth" (2008), "Calabi-Yau" (2009), "Somewhere" (2010), "Throwing Myself In Front Of You" (2011), "In This Very Moment" (2012), "EDITORIAL BAREBACK" (2013), "Unleashed" (2014), "Monument" (2015), "Schweifen" (2016), "Rhythm & Silence" (2019), "IN FELDERN" (2020), "THE LOVERS" (2021) and "Les Préludes" (2022).

In 2018 he was chosen for the "Förderpreis Tanz" of the city of Munich, 2019 - 2021 he received the so-called "Optionsförderung". In 2023 he receives a grant to research the working methods of artists from other disciplines.

His pieces were chosen to take part at the festivals Interplay, Torino; Schleudertraum, Regensburg; Rodeo, Munich; Xtra-Frei, Bremen & Hannover and were invited to be shown at Archauz Theater, Aarhus and Tanzhaus, Zurich, TANZWERKSTATT EUROPA.

He was part of the shared choreographic residency project "Clash" in 2013, which took place at TROIS C-L Centre de Création Chorégraphique, Luxembourg; Mosaico Danza, Torino and schwere reiter/Tanztendenz in Munich.

In 2015 he was invited for a residency at Le Pacifique - Centre de Développement Chorégraphique in Grenoble; supported by a scholarship from the City of Munich. 2019 he worked during a residency in São Paulo / plattformPLUS.

He danced for various choreographers like Sabine Glenz, Amir Hosseinpour, Jessica Iwanson, Mia Lawrence, Xavier Le Roy / Mårten Spångberg, Felix Ruckert, Tino Sehgal, Katja Wachter and others. He was a continuous member of the company of Micha Purucker (Munich) for several years. He was employed at „Bayerische Staatsoper", „Theater Basel", "Haus der Kunst" in Munich and „Bregenzer Opernfestspiele".

He also works as a teacher at several schools in Munich, is holding workshops in Germany, Austria, Luxembourg and Denmark.
