Event Description : Workshops and Milonga with Hugo "Gato" Valdéz.
Hugo "Gato" Valdéz was born in Buenos Aires to a family of “milongueros”. As a child, he accompanied his parents to a well-known milonga in the south area of the city called “Bomberos de Lanús”, where he had the chance to watch the legendary old “milongueros” dance.
Gato started learning tango in the milongas in 1983, first by watching the old “milongueros” dance (the ones who danced the authentic style popular in those years), and later, by taking many lessons with the great masters: Fino, Antonio Todaro, Raúl Bravo and Mingo Pugliese.
In 1984, he performed professionally for the first time with the Osvaldo Pugliese orchestra in the film“Tangos, el exilio de Gardel”, directed by Pino Solanas, a film that got the best film award in Venecia Festival, 1995.
Gato has also appeared in many films, such as “Gracias Maestro” (an Argentine film directed by Luis Segura and dedicated to the life of Osvaldo Pugliese), “Evita”, directed by Alan Parker and “The Tango Lesson”, directed by Sally Potter.
He has also studied drama, performed in many productions as a dancer, and has acted in several one act farces.
Gato has been teaching tango since 1989, the same year in which he went on his first European tango tour.
In 1994, he founded the group “La Postango” together with the singers Pablo Banchero and Cardenal Dominguez.
In 1998 Gato met tango dancer Andrea Monti, with whom he formed a professional tango couple. Since then, they have been dancing and teaching together very successfully both in Argentina and around the world, being the most visited countriesEngland, Italy, Spain, Australia, New Zealand, Malaysia, Singapore, Indonesia, Brazil, Costa Rica and in the last few years the USA.
They have recently achieved their most chanllenging project: Argentine Tango USA Festival and USA Official Championship in San Francisco, which is an official branch of Tango Buenos Aires Dance World Cup, organized by the Ministry of Culture of Buenos Aires. www.argentinetangousa.com April 2 -5, 2015
Also Gato directs a new project for the Florida Tango Festival 2015 in the city of Fort Lauderdale, Florida. USA. May 7 -10, 2015
