Jérôme Bel is a French choreographer whose work challenges the conventions of dance and theatre. From his early structuralist explorations of performance to intimate dancer portraits and large-scale pieces featuring non-traditional performers, his practice deconstructs choreography to foreground individuality, diversity, and political critique. In recent years, his work has also engaged ecological concerns, privileging sustainability in creation and touring. His performances have been presented at major institutions worldwide, and he is recognized with numerous international awards.
