PAUSA is a calm and empty moment to be fulfill by movement and ideas. The collective invite artists to propose ideas, research on them, experiment, play and develop them in order to create a performance or something that can be share with an audience.
PAUSA en movimiento was born in 2008 with the project Prohibido Jugar supported by Fondo Estatal para la Cultura y las Artes, Morelos, Mexico (Local Fund for the Culture and the Arts) and Secretaría de Cultura del Distrito Federal (Ministry of Culture). The collective is especially interested in taking contemporary dance to alternative spaces and audiences in streets, public squares, schools, prisons or theatres; as well as to collaborate with artists from different disciplines. It is also interested in building deep social and artistic links with local communities by exchanging knowledge and experience through workshops and classes.
