Compañía Kaari & Roni Martin's Spanish-Romani-Jewish-Finnish flamenco orchestra and Helsinki City Theater's dance group invite you to Veren häät. The Blood Wedding is contemporary dance and flamenco at its deepest, with lyrics by the Spanish national poet, Federico García Lorca. A blood wedding is like our union with overeating and self-deception, wanton consumption and indifference. It is an autopsy of the animal's humanity and man's animality. Avant-gardists like Lorca, Dalí and Buñuel lived in Europe at a time when poetry was a weapon and when artists were persecuted. Together, they created surrealist art, whose images crystallized the present time and which already foreshadowed the coming world fire. Dali and Buñuel escaped and Lorca was executed, a prelude to the Spanish Civil War. The Blood Wedding is dedicated to those artists who plunge into the bull's horns. https://hkt.fi/esitykset/veren-haat/  All photos Stefan Bremer Comments are closed.
