Velocity Sessions: Speakeasy Series - Delfos Danza Contemporanea

DELFOS DANZA CONTEMPORANEA was founded in 1992 by Mexican choreographers/dancers Claudia Lavista and Victor Manuel Ruiz in Mexico City.  In 1996 we moved  to Mazatlán, México with the vision of creating dynamic new works as well as developing a professional training program for contemporary dancers.  The company is a unique collective of artists whose creative vision is characterized by fluid physicality and poetic narratives.

Delfos is a company and a school with a mission built upon the essential elements of creativity, education, dialogue and collaboration.  We are also a  group of artists and educators interested in generating new ideas, new approaches, new forms and projects.  Delfos Danza Contemporanea is interested in participating with other artists, companies and choreographers in artistic endeavors and partnerships.  We are attracted to the edge of our art form and all the possibilities that exist when we push our boundaries.  We believe in the power of dance and art, which gives balance to our community, our society and the world in which we live.

Pat Graney will be participating in the conversation!

The Speakeasy Series is an artist and Velocity-curated series of panel discussions, audience labs, show + tells, performance lectures, informal community conversations and/or other formats that focus on provocative or timely issues of aesthetics, philosophy or the intersection of dance and social justice confronting, or of interest to, the dance and performance community.  The purpose of the Speakeasy Series is to encourage cross-disciplinary dialogue, promote civic engagement, create meaningful links between artists and the community, and support initiatives at the cutting edge of change. 

This Speakeasy Series is presented through The Velocity Sessions, a partnership with UW World Series.
