Eva Yerbabuena: Yerbagüena (oscuro brillante)

Born in Frankfurt and raised in Ogíjares, a small town in Granada, Eva Yerbabuena is considered “a visionary and masterful dancer” (The Guardian) who is “touched by greatness” (The Times) and embodies “the type of once-in-a-generation artist” (The Independent). Her work draws on the teachings of artists such as Enrique “El Canastero,” Angustillas “La Mona,” Mariquilla, Mario Maya and Juan García, who taught her choreography and movement in Cuba. In 2001, Yerbabuena was invited by Pina Bausch to dance in Wuppertal, Germany) with Mikhail Baryshnikov, Marie-Claude Pietragalla and Ana Laguna. In 1998, at only 28 years old, Yerbabuena created her own company. Since then, she has choreographed a dozen shows and been recognized around the world.

Alfonso Losa & Patricia Guerrero: Alter Ego

Photo by Beatrix Molnar.

Virtuoso performers Patricia Guerrero and Alfonso Losa throw away the rule book to explore personal connection. Guerrero draws geometric figures with her dance. She dismantles her movements and re-creates them. Losa develops new schemes without breaking the mold, builds without deconstructing and stays true to his roots. Alter Ego is flamenco stripped bare. It is pure passion, visceral movement and unfettered exploration.
