Davos Festival completely under new management
The Board of Trustees of the Davos Festival Foundation has elected Judith Brügger from Lucerne as the new Managing Director of the Davos Festival - young artists in concert. She succeeds Dolores Mark, who will be leaving the Davos Festival at the end of the year.
Lucerne native Judith Brügger completed a Master's degree in Cultural Management at Lucerne University of Applied Sciences and Arts and worked for Lucerne Festival as Assistant to the Commercial Director and later as Assistant to the Director of Finance, Human Resources and IT.
During this time, she was involved in various projects such as the Lucerne Festival Ark Nova, the Lucerne Festival Academy, the Salle Modulable and the Young Think Tank.
Following the change of directorship of the Davos Festival from Graziella Contratto to Reto Bieri, the management has also changed. However, Dolores Mark will remain part of the local cultural landscape: She will take over the administrative management of the Kirchner Museum Davos in January 2014. Graziella Contratto is the new head of the music department at Bern University of the Arts.
