Hace unos días vivimos en el Museo la emocionante actuación de Garage Dance Ensemble (@garagedanceensemble ) presentada en colaboración con Works & Process (@worksandprocess ). Su presencia en la inauguración de 'in situ: Levantando el polvo: El archivo del cuerpo' conecta con el proceso creativo de Igshaan Adams (@igshaan.adams ), desarrollado en colaboración con bailarines. Las obras de la exposición surgen de la convicción del artista de que la danza y el movimiento pueden abordar e incluso sanar las heridas internas. ___ A few days ago, we experienced a powerful performance at the Museum by Garage Dance Ensemble presented in collaboration with Works & Process. Their presence at the opening of 'in situ: Unsettling Dust: The Archive of the Body' connects to Igshaan Adams’s creative process, developed in collaboration with dancers. The artworks in the exhibition come from the artist's belief that dance and movement can address and even heal internal wounds. #IgshaanAdamsGuggenheimBilbao #GarageDanceEnsemble
