Manifest of Pole Art

Held annually in Northern Europe since 2009, Pole Art has been a tour de force much exceeding its initial objective: to provide an alternative and innovative forum for pole dance.

Emphasising expressiveness and originality while toning down sports-like competitiveness, the heart of Pole Art has always been the showcase, a stage space exempt from virtually all rules, emerging fresh ideas and unexpected takes on pole dance every year.

Pole Art is less than an event, it is more like the experimental laboratory or echo of the rapid development of a new movement. The joint creativity and effort of an avalanche of dancers from all over the globe.

Welcome to the eclectic display of an emerging form of contemporary stage art.
