EDUARDO GUERRERO - Pulso Libre

Synopsis

A body, a ring, a thunderous yet inaudible breathing. Pulso Libre—literally “free pulse” but also a play on the Spanish term for wrestling, lucha libre—is the stage of an intimate combat, where flamenco sheds all its finery to reveal its rawest core: the pulse burning beneath the skin.

Eduardo Guerrero transforms the boxing ring into an altar of resistance. There, his dancing does not seek applause; the only goal is to outlive itself. Every step, every turn, every jerk of the body is a blow that lands on no one, a cry that is never voiced but pierces nonetheless. Accompanied by two voices and one guitar, he dives into a fierce dialogue with the beat, a fight to the death between instinct and silence.

This is not a spectacle of forms but a state of rapture.

It is a wild, precise abandon where the ancient, ancestral heart beats freely, where tradition is no longer a burden but something that vibrates, blazes and is transformed.

In Pulso Libre, dance is combat, flamenco is resistance, and the body is a battlefield. It is an uncompromising ritual in which dancing is the only way to avoid falling.
