She holds a PhD in Performance Studies from the University of California, Berkeley and from 2019 to 2024 was a program curator with the Amsterdam-based arts organisation If I Can’t Dance. Across her scholarly and curatorial work, Hoetger is concerned with historiographic method and the embodied politics of remembering.

Since 2016, she is a part of Zone Collective, a collaborative research platform that critically investigates and playfully intercedes into conventions for narrating histories of cultural production in geopolitical sites marked by their grey zone ‘border status(es).’ Currently, Zone Collective is writing CINEMA FOR, a pocketbook on the history of the Urban Actions program at the Multimedia Center, Student Center, Zagreb (1976-1983).
