Colombia is a multicultural and multiethnic country. Its cultural richness is multifaceted and can undoubtedly constitute a paradigm of knowledge of our open identity. Spain and Colombia share the same cultural heritage and the same history of sensitivity. The greatness of this legacy lies in the fact that both have been nurtured and enriched over time by the singularities contributed by the new ideas and currents of thought that our environments have sculpted.
The history of Spain and Colombia is marked by the beautiful phenomenon of mobility, very present in the flamenco aesthetic discourse. In our travels back and forth we have not stopped transferring to each other the best saps that our peoples have forged together. The CICLO COLOMBIA BAILA is born, precisely, from the need to preserve this common attribute and pay tribute to it through dance.
The second meeting CICLO COLOMBIA BAILA, entitled Choreographing in Gabo’s country. The challenges of creation in Colombia will have as guests Sarah Storer, artistic director and choreographer, and Ángela Bello, dancer and director of contemporary dance, and will be moderated by Maricel Chevarría, journalist of La Vanguardia.
The Cycle is composed of 4 virtual meetings and 1 face-to-face meeting. Its objective is to bring together notable personalities from the world of culture and dance of the two countries. The events will be broadcast on the YouTube channels of the CCMP and the Teatro Mayor Julio Mario Santo Domingo in Bogota, as well as their networks.
