Wayqeycuna (bitácora para regresar a casa)

Tiziano Cruz

In 2016, La Virreina Centre de la Imatge launched a series of lines of research that sought to reconnect its institutional paradigms with the deluge of work from the artistic and activist sphere.

In the first stage (2016-2018) the Social Imaginary Production Platforms carried out many initiatives, and the second period (2019-2021) analysed the political and social uses of images and the history of the building where La Virreina is located, and explored the diasporic condition and the memory of the proletariat. We are now initiating a third phase that revolves around the work of the performer Tiziano Cruz, an artist from the periphery of Argentina who uses a selection of autobiographical markers to compose theatrical narratives that articulate multimedia dramaturgical components such as video and live sound resonance. Cruz has organized the theatrical schemes in complete solitude, recovering the memory of his body and the power of his Andean ancestors.

The company is joined by Luciana Iovane, Rodrigo Herrera, Matthias Gutierrez, Luciano Giambastiani, Cecilia Kuska (of Rosa Studio) and Tiziano Cruz.
