CUBEART FESTIVAL: colores, espectáculos y música que no se han exhibido antes

CubeArt es un festival multidisciplinar de arte y música que celebra y promueve la danza contemporánea cubana, el arte callejero y la música electrónica a través de actuaciones integradas, música en directo e instalaciones artísticas por toda La Habana. Colaboramos con músicos locales e internacionales, muralistas, bailarines, coreógrafos, grupos de performance independientes y compañías de danza nacionales dentro de estilos urbanos y contemporáneos. Algunos artistas son autodidactas, mientras que otros han recibido una educación formal como intérpretes o productores musicales. Cuando se reúnen, este variado abanico de artistas crea piezas escénicas que transforman la relación de la gente con la cultura ofreciendo nuevas perspectivas sobre la finalidad del arte.
