ARTISTIC DIRECTION


She appeared in the artistic horizon in 1986 when, back from Merce Cunningham Trust based in New York City, she contributed to mark a turning point for the contemporary dance in Italy.
Right away she has been entrusted with didactic and executive tasks at some of the most significant dance training centres of northern Italy; at the same time, she has proved to be a pioneer in modern and contemporary dance thanks to her innovative choreography work open to contamination between various artistic worlds.
After extraordinary collaborations with musicians, sound designers and directors the caliber of Maurizio Scaparro, Giorgio Albertazzi and Anrée Ruth Shammah, in 1998 she founded Compagnia Pier Lombardo Danza, together with the ètoile Luciana Savignano – today Compagnia Susanna Beltrami. Since 2006 she has been directing Accademia Susanna Beltrami, high-level growth path, core element and beating heart of “casa della danza”, launched in 2009.
