Books on the Move, the traveling and online bookstore for dancers, movers and thinkers is delighted to be guest of Notafe summer festival, for the third consecutive year.
This year’s team is Agnès Benoit, dancer and founder of Books on the Move, and Peter Pleyer, dancer and books lover from Berlin.
Our nomadic bookstore dedicated to the inquiry of dance, performance studies and movement practices will be present throughout the festival with a selection of English titles on artist writings, theoretical essays, choreography, biographies, as well as texts on somatic practices.
As last year and thanks to Notafe’s marvellous team, we will set up the books in a van again. For lunch time you’ll find us outside the Hobby Centre, where you can take the time to browse through new and rare publications, as well as the unavoidable and untraceable of dance literature.
We invite you to stop by to read, have a chat, meet, write, do a little dance, take a nap with a book opened right in your hands...
In the evenings our van will be parked in front of the theater where you can have a look again at the books before and after the shows.
We’re looking forward to welcoming you in our moving bookstore!
You may have a look at our selection before coming to Viljandi

If there are any books you would like us to bring to Notafe,
let us know before June 30th
Books on the Move was initiated by dancer Agnès Benoit in 2008, in Berlin, with the wish to make dance literature available to artists. Without a proper shop, this international traveling bookstore unfolds over Internet and goes towards readers and dancers by bike, taxi, car, van, train or plane. Following the current dance events (performances, conferences, festivals…) and throughout the years it created a network within Europe, working in close collaboration with host curators.
Since 2013, Books on the Move is based in Bordeaux, in the south of France. Joined by a team of volunteers throughout Europe. Books on the Move is today expanding into different events, workshops and pedagogical activities focusing on movement, writing, speaking, languages and reading.
On Wednesday July 10th (during the day off)
Peter and Agnès invite you to this year’s edition
