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 />

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 />

With Las alturas de Simpson, composed by<br />

Matanzas, the danzón became the Cuban<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 />
Charanga de Oro and danzón bands from<br />
Holland and the UK. Cuban musicologists,<br />

Plaza de Armas, Old Havana<br />
Havana’s first plaza will become the stage for<br />
Medea de barro, D'Morón theater company’s<br />

Euripides, a grisly plot that revolves around,<br />
love, jealousy and revenge.<br />

Sala Adolfo Llauradó<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 />

Organized for the first time in 1993, this<br />
International Meeting of Ballet Academies has<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 />

7-11 April / 2011<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 />

Since 2003, the International Low-Budget Film<br />
Festival has been held in the small town of<br />
Gibara close to the eastern city of Holguín The<br />

and topics, aspiring to become an alternative to<br />
commercial filmmaking, promoting artistic<br />
quality with production costs kept to a<br />
minimum. The organizers have announced<br />
that this year there will be no competition but a<br />
significant showing of films from several<br />

Gran Teatro de La Habana and other venues in<br />
Havana 17-24 April / 2011<br />
Founded in 1989 by Cuba’s prima ballerina,<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 />
the Castillo de la Real Fuerza--itself an<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 />
