FUNDarte in Collaboration with Miami Dade County Auditorium, presented Objects In The Mirror Are Closer Than They Appear by Abel Berenguer & Sandra Ramy, on June 28th, 2019 at On.Stage Black.Box at Miami Dade County Auditorium.
This Dance piece explores the residence of the body itself, and by extension, the everyday entity. It is the search for an image, sometimes lacking in significance, in that micro universe that we inhabit, be it a city or country. It is the reality that gives us back the reflection of our own image. Objects in the Mirror… is the nearness of a distance. Looking for words to define a city, an immigrant gay artist explores his new life in Miami through a newly commissioned dance choreography.

FUNDarte presented I Am Made In Mexico by Astrid Hadad (Mexico) on June 1st, 2019 at The Colony Theater, Miami Beach.
Astrid Hadad is a legendary Mexican cabaret performer, historian, social critic and activist. This cultural icon has inherited a unique Mexican female surrealism and created her own that pulses with campy humor and irony. She confronts politics, Mexican hypocrisy, machismo, and corruption in cabaret style productions filled with music combining ranchera, bolero, rumba and rock, and featuring extravagant costumes, which have become a hallmark of her performances.

FUNDarte in Collaboration with Miami Dade County Auditorium, presented Macho Man XXI by Tania Pérez-Salas Dance Company (Mexico) on May 4th, 2019 at Mid-Stage at Miami Dade County Auditorium.
With a sense of humor and intense physical imagery, this dance piece tackles the effects of gender violence taking place in the chaotic, surreal and exotic culture of Mexico. In riveting and craftily gender-coded dance, the powerful and daring work pulls up fear by its roots, revealing the submissive and perverted state of this social legacy, ever apparent in the media, contemporary beauty standards and their underlying violence.
