2Whyte - Fri 16th & Sat 17th July

Tuesday, 08 June 2010 16:22

Raymond D. Blanco & Raphael Blanco with Nicholas Mills (director/media).

2Whyte is a new creative development process that brings together two Far North Queensland dance artists from very different cultural backgrounds.

Raymond D. Blanco is an Indigenous dancer, choreographer and director, an acknowledged leader in the development of Indigenous dance and the performing arts, both in Australia and Internationally. Raphael Blanco is a 76 year-old Cuban dancer and teacher, and one of the first Cuban immigrants in Australia.

They share last names and long diverse careers in dance, and 2Whyte brings them together to examine and document, through dance, sound, and image, their synergies and passion.
