The Kukai Dantza dance company. Gernika-Guernica

Kukai Dantza, a dance company based in the Basque Country, works with traditional Basque dance, setting up encounters with other styles of dance and other ways of understanding art. In conjunction with both Pity and Terror. Picasso's Path to Guernica, the exhibition marking the 80th anniversary of Guernica's first public appearance, and International Dance Day, the Museo Reina Sofía presents Gernika-Guernica, a piece created specifically for the occasion by Kukai Dantza. The choreography draws inspiration from the icons of Gernika and Guernica because, according to the creators, "they are rooted in our tradition and look at our present and future".
