In Israel Galván’s SOLO, the physical language of flamenco is recoded, using modes of expression that are genealogically related, as well as performative aspects of other rituals in popular culture, from football to activism to cross-dressing.
In constant search of a dance that frees itself from the characteristics inherited from established flamenco, Galván says: “SOLO is a coincidence – one day, when I was dancing, I stood still, I couldn’t move and there was no music. It was a lonely minute. In all those years I learned to dance alone with my loneliness. I notice the sound of my body and I dance in silence.”
