Tango is a recurring theme in my works. Since 3 years I deal with this subject intensively.
With my series DADANGO I rebel against the conventions of tango which want to show the dancers in the traditional way: man in black suit with hat and white foulard + woman in black or red dress with stilettos and chignon.
The term DADANGO arose automatically. Dadaism and tango were words which immediately came to the minds of the viewers.
