    1. If I Can’t Dance's programme of artist commissions for Edition V – Appropriation and Dedication (2013–2014) presents new work by Gerry Bibby, Sara van der Heide, Snejanka Mihaylova and Emily Roysdon. If I Can’t Dance also continues its Performance in Residence programme in Edition V with four new research projects. These projects are structured to approach performance-related practices through production-led research and are being undertaken by Gregg Bordowitz, Jacob Korczynski, Sven Lütticken and Grant Watson.

      These new Commissions and Performance in Residence projects are framed by our current edition that takes the notion of ‘appropriation and dedication’ as its field of research.
