Jeroen Coppens

I am currently a visiting professor at the Department of Art History, Musicology and Theatre Studies at Ghent University (Belgium). Furthermore, I work as a dramaturg and as a press and public relations officer for the Brüder Grimm Festspiele in Hanau, Germany.

I hold degrees in Philosophy (University of Antwerp, 2007) and Theatre- and Film Studies (University of Antwerp, 2008). In 2009, I completed my studies at the Free University of Berlin. In 2016, I obtained my doctoral degree at Ghent University with a dissertation entitled Visually Speaking. A Research into Visual Strategies of Illusion in Postdramatic Theater. 

I publish on the themes of visual dramaturgy, intermediality, postdramatic theatre and the performance of images.
