and Theatre walk hand in hand.
Please come and join us next Monday
19th November at 2.15 pm at the Barber Concert Hall (The Barber
Institute of Fine Arts, University of Birmingham).
Everybody is welcome!
THE ARTISTS
María Rosendo Priego Born in 1984, María Rosendo lived in Vigo, the olive tree city, until
the age of eighteen when she began a journey that took her through Compostela
from inside and out, in the meantime living in Madrid, Sweden, Buenos Aires and
Chiapas. In this migration through physical space, the poems also move in
search of a space of their own: a space that from now on will be built of
capital letters. The spaces she walks through have women’s names, the women in
whom she seeks the truth of knowing that we are free. In the spring of 2011,
she published her first collection of poems, Nómade, which was awarded the
XXIII Xosé María Pérez Pallaré, National Poetry Prize. In 2010 she also won the
VII O Condado Feminist Literary Contest. Today she migrates from equinox to
equinox in the city of Compostela. She knows that the path to emancipation lies
in the strength of women.
Mano Panforreteiro works in music and in the theatre as a composer, musician and actor. He
finds it as fascinating to overcome barriers between disciplines as to remove
frontiers between cultures. This concept of artistic work led him to be one of
the musicians in Kibitka, to create the spectacle I hear that in New York / Brecht poetry and Eisler
songs in exile with the German singer Sabine Müller, and to
form duos with the Belorussian accordionist Vadim Yukhnevich, the Belgian
saxophonist Anne Gennen and the English concertinist Anthony Dudson; this is
the essence of his artistic project Miraquenvén Lookwhoscoming, interconnecting Galician and international artistic work.
