Wim Vandekeybus is a Belgian choreographer, dancer, filmmaker, and founder of the internationally acclaimed company Ultima Vez. Since his groundbreaking debut What the Body Does Not Remember (1987), which earned him a Bessie Award in New York, he has become one of the defining figures of contemporary dance. His work is recognized for its visceral physicality, intense energy, and exploration of instinct, risk, and human emotion.

At the core of Vandekeybus’s artistic universe lies a fascination with contrasts such as chaos and control, body and mind, nature and culture. Blending dance, theatre, film, music, and visual arts into a distinctive theatrical language, he has collaborated with artists including David Byrne, Marc Ribot, Warren Ellis, and Sidi Larbi Cherkaoui. Alongside his stage productions, he has directed several dance films and the feature film Galloping Mind (2015). His creations for companies such as Batsheva Dance Company, Rambert, Royal Swedish Ballet, and Opera Ballet Vlaanderen have further established his international reputation.
