Ticket purchase to Tango Essence with Pedro Giraudo’s Tango Quartet includes admission to the Rotunda Dance Party at 8 pm with NYCity Tango Collective, in partnership with Guggenheim Member Mondays.
Experience the soul of tango in an evening created by Mariana Parma with tango dancer Leonardo Sardella, Latin Grammy-award-winner Pedro Giraudo and his Tango Quartet featuring singer Sofia Tosello. Presented by Works & Process in conjunction with the Guggenheim Museum exhibition Harmony and Dissonance: Orphism in Paris, 1910–1930, see the connection between works by Orphist artists, including Sonia Delaunay, and the circular forms, spirals, arching patterns and constellations of paired bodies moving with the synthesis and electric tension emblematic of tango. A social dance, tango enables people of different ages, cultures, and backgrounds to meet in an “embrace.” Originated in the 1880s along the Rio de la Plata between Argentina and Uruguay, the tango quickly spread to the rest of the world, including Paris, and intertwining with the artists of the Orphist movement. View the exhibition, see a one night only performance in the theater, and join in an interactive dance lesson and social dance for all in the rotunda.
In conjunction with Member Mondays.
