Street Dance Orishas

Join the team at CAAM for a live performance in conjunction with the new exhibition, Bahia Reverb, part of its five-year partnership with Art + Practice. These captivating dance duets celebrate the orixás (spirits) of Brazilian Candomblé​​: Exu, Ogum, Iansã, Xangô, Oxum, Oxóssi, and Iemanjá, with one dancer performing the traditional Afro-Brazilian movement vocabulary version and a second dancer portraying a contemporary street dance version of the same orixá.
