"For years, my passion for photography has made this art an important creative tool as a choreographer; the main source of inspiration for some of my work. I have always been fascinated by the exercise of transforming a flat image into the three-dimensionality of the body in movement and the way of connecting past and present in this process. connection between past and present that is generated in this process". Antonio Ruz

Taking as a starting point a selection of black and white photographs from the Museum's collection of various authors of the twentieth century, selected with the sole premise of body/action, the work proposes an evocative game through dance in which dancers dialogue with architecture, light and live music in different spaces. An ephemeral and suggestive piece in which the public will be guided through a choreographic and sound installation.
