Marion Dieterle studied dance at the Arnhem/Düsseldorf University of Arts, formerly the European Dance Development Center. It was her exposure to American postmodernism (Judson Church movement and subsequent generations) that decisively shaped her perspective and compositional work as a dancer. With sociological subtlety, performatively and at the same time playfully, she interweaves patterns of perception of body and space with lived and constructed categories of the self and its environment.

Marion Dieterle is a stage personality whose love of poetic and odd gestures, appearances and images always looks anew at bodies and their existence in the world. She creates landscapes of ideas, possibilities and objects, using the BODY as an exploration system and as a medium to navigate between the elements and create content. The works are created in the interplay between dance, painting and object in project-related collaborations with various artists.
