The Neta Dance Company has been making collaborative, innovative work for the past twenty-three years. It celebrated a twenty-year retrospective over two weeks in 2005 at The Flea Theater. Artistic Director, Neta Pulvermacher, has been commissioned by Jose Limon Company through MANCC Free to Rep; invited to teach international workshops in Senegal, Belarus, Costa Rica, Israel, and Poland; and awarded a special choreography award from Bessie Schoenberg. The company has been presented in New York City at Dance Theater Workshop, Danspace Project, The Joyce Theater, 92nd Street Y Harkness Dance Series, Symphony Space, The Flea Theater and The Kitchen among others. The company has enjoyed touring throughout the U.S., Israel (Israel Festival), Europe, Costa Rica and Canada in addition to its noted collaborations with avant-guard musicians and composers, such as Roy Nathanson and The Jazz Passengers, John Zorn and Masada, Anthony Coleman, Yuval Gabay and the English rock band XTC among others. Neta's artistic visions through the Neta Dance Company have received support through NEA, NYFA, The Jerome Foundation, Mary Flager Cary Charitable Trust, and Greenwall Foundation among others; and she received a special choreography award from Bessie Schoenberg in 1995. Neta also is the founder of the critically acclaimed The A.W.A.R.D. Show! Series (Artists With Audiences Responding 2 Dance) held at Joyce SoHo, which has now expanded nationally to include events in Chicago, Seattle, Philadelphia and New York supporting the presentation and creation of new works in contemporary dance. Most recently Pulvermacher was invited to teach at Ecole Des Sables in Senegal and is asked back to be part of the team creating the African/American Choreographers Meeting in 2010 to take place in Senegal.
