Duggandanza – Aesthetic Concept
Since
it’s birth in 1984, Duggandanza has developed it’s own style, combining
artistic expressions, investigating and exploring different types of body
language, lighting and use of objects.
Thanks to the use of
images, movement, music and varied materials, the choreographic creations,
through an extensive investigation of lighting and space, create playful and
fantastic sceneries where whatever happens on the stage leads towards
imagination and poetry.
Duggandanza has received subsidies and
co-productions from INT, The National Arts Foundations, the “Centro Cultural
Rojas”, Teatro San Martín and Prodanza.
