Los Torreznos

Los Torreznos

Spain

Los Torreznos are Jaime Vallaure and Rafael Lamata, from Madrid, Spain. Their work is oriented towards expressive experimentation through gestures, language, and presence, using forms available to anyone, not only specialized performers. Their humorous content reflects the day-to-day flow of life, and is developed in various formats, both in live presentations (performance or action art) and multimedia (video and audio pieces). They also conduct workshops and lectures. The project Los Torreznos started to develop in 1999. Some instances of venues hosting their shows include: Festival Do Disturb, Palais de Tokyo, Paris, 2015; Festival Verbo, GalerĂ­a Vermelho, Sao Paulo, 2014; Cuatrocientos setenta y tres millones trescientoscincuenta y tres mil ochocientos noventa segundos, CA2M, Madrid; International Performance Art Turbine, Giswill, Switzerland, 2013; Rencontre Internationale d'Art Performance, Quebec, 2012; Jerusalem Show, Ramala, Palestine, 2011; Cairo Mediterranean Literary Festival, El Cairo, 2010; Paradiso spezato, Venice 52th Bienniale, Spanish Pavillion, 2007.
