| Description |
| Founded by Bolivian-born Elba Hevia y Vaca in 2000, Pasion y Arte quickly achieved a reputation for staging groundbreaking contemporary feminist flamenco dances that are simultaneously deeply steeped in the teachings of the southern Spanish masters and Hevia y Vacas personal experiences as a woman, Latina, Boliviana, and American. She is not alone. Other contemporary choreographers create experimental work influenced by the homegrown culture of Latin America and the US, which is why Hevia y Vaca has decided to initiate a special series of three annual tablao performances featuring Flamenco de Las Americas. |
