ABOUT ARTIST  許芳宜簡介

A contemporary dance artist celebrated internationally for her exceptional techniques and artistry, Sheu was born in Yilan, Taiwan. Fresh out of college in 1994 as a dance major, she went to New York to pursue her dance career. She joined Martha Graham Dance Company the following year and became its principal dancer in 1999. During her time with the company, she became one of the most recognizable faces in the global modern dance scene for her powerful yet elegant style. Some even praised her as “the finest present-day embodiment of Martha Graham’s technique and tradition.”

Through her artistic journey to date, Sheu has been a pioneering figure. Aside from being awarded with Order of Brilliant Star with Cravat in 2005, she became the youngest recipient of Taiwan’s National Cultural Award in 2008. Though mostly known as a dance artist, Sheu has also devoted herself to cross-disciplinary experiments, and is best known for her performance in films “Touch of the Light” and “The Assasin.” In 2022 she starred in the semi-autobiography film “Salute” and won Best Action Design Award at the 59th Golden Horse Awards.
