LA MEMORIA DEL TIEMPO EN LA DANZA DE EL DESCUEVE

Abstract

In accordance with the relationship between memory, identity and history, and the need for there to be material marks so that certain events can be preserved and transmitted (Groppo, 2002), this article analyzes the first works of the group El Descueve (“Criatura”, 1990, “La fortuna”, 1991), and its relationship with the sociopolitical context from its reception in the media. In parallel, from the analysis of choreographic elements, we observe how the time of the dance dialogues with the time of the spectator, weaving together a shared memory from the “awareness of elapsed time” (Todorov, 2013) that occurs in the theatrical conviviality (Dubatti, 2008).
