Gisela Cardenas | Paul Pinto

Princess Grace Foundation-USA Works-in-Progress Resident Artist

Director Gisela Cardenas (NYC) and Paul Pinto develop Hybrid Suite No. 2: The Carmen Variations, a hybrid opera that mixes electronic music with acoustic instruments and opera-trained musicians conceived as an answer to Bizet's Carmen. Excavating different layers of feminine eroticism, the work challenges stereotypes of foreignness and femininity.
