The International Festival of the Arts of Movement, Move, celebrates its second edition in this final stretch of June with a presence on four islands, Tenerife, La Palma, Gran Canaria and Lanzarote. This 2022 event schedules three companies and is also twinned with the Danzattack Festival, which will be present at all four sessions with a compilation of cinedanza pieces.
After its premiere in the province of Santa Cruz de Tenerife on June 18 and 19, the exhibition arrives this weekend in Gran Canaria and Lanzarote, next Friday and Saturday, respectively, with the participation of Carlota Mantecón and Franklin Dávalos . Attendance is free entry until full capacity. Move has the support of ICDC, Promotour and the Government of the Canary Islands
On Friday, the activity will take place at the Maspalomas Cultural Center. Starting at 7:30 p.m., the DanzataTTack Festival selection of cinedanza will be exhibited, with a total of four works: ‘The wall’, ‘Fuerza’, ‘Fresh oranges…’ and ‘Breath’.
Next, Carlota Mantecón will present her work ‘This is not a sound check’, a work in which a series of corporeal-sound games are activated, an invitation to movement between the sense of hearing, bodily kinesthesia and image.
The day will conclude with ‘La escondida’, by Frankling Dávalos starting at 8:30 p.m., with a contemporary dance piece that explores the psychology of a mother through her son given up for adoption at birth. Autobiographical work that proposes the reconciliation of man with his femininity through dialogue with his biological origin and the need for a re-elaboration of the concept of ‘mother’ in our society.
On Saturday the activity moves to the House of Culture Agustín de La Hoz, in Arrecife, with the same program that will take place from 6:00 p.m.
