Through 8 May / 2011<br />

Museo Nacional de Bellas Artes (Edificio de Arte<br />

An exhibition which aims to rescue the<br />

production of two Cuban artists whose work<br />

was silenced by the tense atmosphere of the<br />

1970s in Cuba: Santiago Armada (Chago) and<br />

Umberto Peña, who used eroticism in works of<br />

a marked expressionist character in order to<br />

allude to other topics. Little recognized and<br />

undervalued even today, Peña’s 12 engravings<br />

and one pencil drawing, and Chago’s 20 ink<br />

drawings on exhibit, some of which are now<br />

part of the museum’s collection, allow the<br />

viewer toi appreciate the values of their<br />

creation.<br />

with a group of 2nd-year art students from the<br />

made a public intervention on the dilapidated<br />

construction that housed the former Royal<br />

Bank of Canada, placing on each of its 16<br />

in Santiago de Cuba<br />

The International Pepe Sánchez Trova<br />

Festival began in 1962 in homage to local<br />

Santiago de Cuba composer José (Pepe)<br />

Sánchez (1856-1918), considered the father of<br />

Cuban trova (the troubador genre of voice,<br />

song and poetry that is usually accompanied<br />

by a guitar). Several generations of musicians<br />

from different musical trends within trova<br />

participate in this event, including exponents of<br />

more traditional trova, of filin (an evolution of<br />

bolero and trova), and of nueva trova (the very<br />

Cuban genre of personal commentary<br />

influenced by British, US and Brazilian popular<br />

music). Santiago de Cuba—the cradle of<br />

trova—hosts this festival which takes the city’s<br />

streets and parks by storm in a celebration<br />

where musicians and singers from abroad join<br />

their Cuban counterparts. The closing of the<br />

festival on Troubador Day, March 19th,<br />

commemorates the anniversary of the birth of<br />

Pepe Sanchez.<br />

national dance. Although not many people take<br />

much interest in this genre nowadays,<br />

surprisingly, it is more alive in other countries<br />

than in Cuba. For this reason, the 2011 Danzón<br />

Festival will pay tribute to the Mexican states of<br />

Oaxaca and Tamaulipas, and the city of Toluca.<br />

The festival will include a competition with<br />

dancers from Mexico, Venezuela and<br />

Colombia, as well as the performance of<br />

famous bands, such as Aragón and la<br />

Holland and the UK. Cuban musicologists,<br />

Plaza de Armas, Old Havana<br />

Havana’s first plaza will become the stage for<br />

Euripides, a grisly plot that revolves around,<br />

love, jealousy and revenge.<br />

Rerun by Teatro Tumbo of playwright Abel<br />

González Melo’s successful and much<br />

awarded Chamaco, a play which was first<br />

staged by Argos Teatro, and whose director,<br />

Carlos Celdrán, has said, “I have produced<br />

Chamaco, not only because it is Cuban and<br />

deals directly with the reality in which I am<br />

interested in, but how it deals with it, how it<br />

penetrates the reality that it touches on, how it<br />

blurs its most obvious, expected and local turf,<br />

and creates an essential image behind<br />

situations and words, an image that unravels<br />

possible fragments of a painful and elusive<br />

Havana.”<br />

made it possible for dancers, teachers and<br />

students to become familiar with the technical<br />

and stylistic peculiarities of the Cuban School<br />

of Ballet through workshops, courses, and<br />

methodological and master lessons. Similarly,<br />

dancers and pedagogues from other countries<br />

have conveyed their experiences in a fruitful<br />

exchange with their Cuban colleagues. In<br />

addition, since 1995, an international<br />

competition for students is held in different<br />

categories (13-14, 15-16 and 17-18 years old)<br />

and four prizes are awarded: revelation, best<br />

partners, best individual performance and the<br />

La Joven Estampa<br />

This unique International Urban Dance<br />

Festival: “Old Havana, City in Motion” was first<br />

held in 1996 in two or three small museums<br />

located in Havana’s Historical Centre,<br />

eventually bringing into play most of the<br />

institutions, plazas and streets of Old Havana.<br />

Aiming to link dance choreography with the<br />

visual and expressive nature of the old city, as<br />

well as seeking to interact with passers-by, the<br />

event, organized by the Retazos Dance<br />

Company directed by dancer and<br />

choreographer Isabel Bustos, is attended by<br />

hundreds of foreign and Cuban guests.<br />

Old Havana<br />

7-11 April / 2011<br />

Considered the only prize of its kind in Latin<br />

America, the La Joven Estampa Award brings<br />

together engravers under 35 years of age,<br />

which have been born or naturalized in the<br />

continent, and seeks to encourage young<br />

creators of this art. The event includes<br />

exhibitions of works made by the members of<br />

the jury and winners of previous competitions,<br />

lectures, workshops and theoretical<br />

discussions on engraving, from traditional<br />

techniques to the most modern forms of this<br />

art.<br />

commercial filmmaking, promoting artistic<br />

quality with production costs kept to a<br />

minimum. The organizers have announced<br />

significant showing of films from several<br />

Alicia Alonso, this festival (literally, “Spanish<br />

Imprint Festival”), while acknowledging both<br />

traditional and contemporary Spanish cultural<br />

influence on the island, is nonetheless very<br />

Cuban. Cuban and Spanish soloists, theatre<br />

companies, dance ensembles and music<br />

groups perform at the Gran Teatro de La<br />

Habana as well as in the Plaza de Armas and<br />

enduring testimony of previous Hispanic<br />

presence in the city.<br />

Romerías de Mayo<br />

11 MAR 2011<br />

Holguín city<br />

2-8 May / 2011<br />

Continuing a tradition that dates back to<br />

colonial times, in 1993 a group of young artists<br />

decided to organize these romerías with the<br />

arrival of Spring. This festival, which was held<br />

for the first time at the foot of the cross which<br />

Father Antonio Alegría placed on 3 May, 1790<br />

at the top of a hill, 275 metres above sea level,<br />

is presided over by the Hacha Taína (the Taino<br />

Axe) and the Cruz de Madera (the Wooden<br />

Cross), symbols of the mixture of elements that<br />

constitute the Cuban culture. Following this<br />

spirit, every year musicians, actors,<br />

researchers, artists, writers and dancers come<br />

together to share their artistic endeavour<br />

during intense days and nights in which the<br />

diversity of their propositions is exhibited, and<br />

Cuban and foreign artists join the locals to<br />

enjoy a marathon-like programme in various<br />

parts of the city.<br />
