EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, published in The Sketch in 1928, offers a unique glimpse into the innovative Mary Wigman School in Berlin during the Weimar Republic. Mary Wigman (1886-1973), a pioneering figure in modern and expressionist dance, founded the school to challenge traditional dance forms and nurture the next generation of dancers. In this image, young girls, dressed in simple, practical clothing, are seen working alongside workmen as they construct a new schoolhouse. The sight of girls actively participating in the building process was a novelty at the time, reflecting the progressive and inclusive ethos of the school. The Mary Wigman School was more than just a place for dance training; it was a community that fostered creativity, independence, and physical strength. The girls were encouraged to explore their artistic potential and learn various skills, including carpentry, masonry, and painting. This hands-on approach to education was a testament to Wigman's belief that dance was an integral part of a holistic, well-rounded education. The Weimar Republic, a period of political and cultural transformation in Germany, provided a fertile ground for the emergence of modern dance and the Mary Wigman School. The school's progressive approach to education and its emphasis on individual expression resonated with the cultural and social shifts taking place during this time. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the groundbreaking work of Mary Wigman and the Mary Wigman School, which continues to inspire dancers and educators around the world.
