The grass is always, well… you know.

2024-08-02 20:30 | Westchester Cultural Arts Center, 7930 SW 40th St, Miami, FL, 33155, United States
ARCA Images and Miami-Dade County Auditorium present the World Premiere of “Papier Maché” on August 1-11 at the Westchester Cultural Arts Center (WCAC).
La historia gira alrededor de la vida y el trabajo de la importante pintora cubana Antonia Eiriz.
Antonia alcanzó su mayor reconocimiento como pintora en la Cuba revolucionaria de la década de 1960. En el apogeo de su carrera, después de sufrir ataques y críticas por parte de algunos comisionados y representantes de las instituciones culturales del país, quienes la acusaban decrear una obra pesimista y derrotista que se alejaba de la nueva realidad social, optó por retirarse y permanecer en silencio en la escena artística durante más de veinticinco años. En el texto, un director de teatro intenta “vender” un proyecto sobre Antonia a productores, bienales y teatros en Europa. La incomprensión y las dudas ideológicas, culturales y comerciales que su idea genera son parte de la trama de la obra, junto con la investigación que debe realizar para reconstruir los eventos y causas que rodearon la supuesta censura y autoexilio de la artista.

MDCA Away from Home: “Ser. Rana” by Sonia Franco
2024-11-02 20:00 | Aventura Arts & Cultural Center, 3385 NE 188th St., Aventura, FL, 33180, United States
FUNDarte and Miami-Dade County Auditorium presents “Ser. Rana” by Sonia Franco, with Flamenco Spain Arts and Culture (formerly Fundación Casa Patas), on Saturday, November 2 and Sunday, November 3 at the Aventura Arts & Cultural Center. Part of FUNDarte’s annual FL.Flamencos series.
Created by Sonia Franco Gutiérrez, dancer, choreographer and actress who has premiered dance shows around the world, “Ser. Rana” is an omen. It is an experience that transforms movement and releases the desire to dance, like water that cannot be contained, like the flow of the river that you have inside you and does not cease, transforming your body through flamenco while you travel through impossible scenario… like the frogs that get lost outside their pond. With original music created for this trip, flamenco is at the service of the movement and connects directly with the viewer through a minimalist aesthetic. Only music and dance reveal what lives in the body that, animated by life, resists the sordidity of the world.
