Born in 1965, João Fiadeiro belongs to the generation of choreographers that emerged at the end of the 1980s and gave rise to New Portuguese Dance.
His career, whether as a choreographer or performer, or as a researcher or curator, has centred on creating conditions for experimentation, laboratory practice and interdisciplinary cross-fertilisation. This activity has been carried out both within the framework of directing artistic programming and research projects, which have included the Centro Cultural da Malaposta (1990-95), Espaço Ginjal (1995-1998), Lugar Comum (1999-2000), Espaço A Capital (2000-2002) and Atelier Real (2004-2019), and within the framework of his artistic practice, through the creations and research workshops organised around Composition in Real Time.
In all these different meeting platforms, João Fiadeiro has always been accompanied by artists who have actively participated as creators, performers, researchers and programme-makers, making a decisive contribution to the project’s existence over 30 years of uninterrupted activity.
