Experience the soul of tango in an evening created by Mariana Parma with tango dancer Leonardo Sardella, Latin Grammy-award-winner Pedro Giraudo and his Tango Quartet featuring singer Sofia Tosello. Presented by Works & Process in conjunction with the Guggenheim Museum exhibition Harmony and Dissonance: Orphism in Paris, 1910–1930, see the connection between works by Orphist artists, including Sonia Delaunay, and the circular forms, spirals, arching patterns and constellations of paired bodies moving with the synthesis and electric tension emblematic of tango. A social dance, tango enables people of different ages, cultures, and backgrounds to meet in an “embrace.” Originated in the 1880s along the Rio de la Plata between Argentina and Uruguay, the tango quickly spread to the rest of the world, including Paris, and intertwined with the artists of the Orphist movement.

At 8 pm, come dance in the rotunda with the NYCity Tango Collective! This group of professional dancers from Argentina and Uruguay with more than 25 years of experience aims to spread tango throughout NYC. In conjunction with the Guggenheim’s Member Mondays and with the Guggenheim’s exhibition Harmony and Dissonance: Orphism in Paris, 1910–1930, Works & Process opens the Guggenheim rotunda to NYCity Tango for a tango dance class taught by the collective and followed by a social dance party.

Ticket Holders are welcome to explore exhibitions on view at the Guggenheim starting at 6 pm.

Tickets start at $15 and can be purchased at https://www.worksandprocess.org/calendar/works-and-process-at-the-guggenheim-tangoessence-pedrogiraudo

ADRIANA SALGADO AND ORLANDO REYES
ATUSA USA Official Tango Champions 2019- 2021
Adriana and Orlando have been professional dancers and teachers of Argentine Tango for over twenty-seven years. With a background in classical ballet, they started off studying Tango in Buenos Aires under the auspices of renowned tango masters.

International performances include the United Arab Emirates, Egypt, Aruba, Argentina, Canada, Indonesia and their native Colombia. They are based in New York since 2007 where they have taught and performed at many tango venues nationwide. They have also been guest teachers and performers at Holland America, Norwegian and Royal Princess cruises 2012-2013. Other stage performances include Tango Malbec House in New York City 2012-2014 and performances in DC with the Pan American Symphony Orchestra of DC since 2016.

Their smooth, romantic, elegant style and solid connection make their Tango Salon and Stage performances outstanding. Their teaching focuses on the subtleties of the connection, posture and overall technique fundamentals. Their passion, love and constant dedication for Argentine Tango is palpable and has won them recognition with awards at their native Colombia and more recently in the USA, where they have become the USA Stage Tango (2019) and Tango de Pista (2021) Champions. www.adrianayorlando.com
