Hacia un sol negro. Joaquín Collado

This solo performance takes as its inspiration the exploration of the performativity of competitive ballroom dancing, known as sports dancing. Joaquin Collado studies how to alter the logics of this type of dance to bring forth a multiple and indeterminate body that is, as a result, open and available to be imagined. This body dances between recognisable forms of ballroom dance and unclassifiable, monstrous and poetic forms, to invoke the subversive power of the stereotypes that inhabit us. We will journey with Collado as an associate artist with the Mercat de les Flors, with various derivatives of his project that we will be presenting during the season.
