[vc_row][vc_column width=”2\/3″][vc_column_text]\r\n\r\nIn January 1989, Mar\u00eda Mu\u00f1oz and Pep Ramis formed the dance group Mal Pelo. From the start, the group based its work on a constant search for languages. From this mingling of languages came performance projects rooted in a deep, clean and simple crossover of disciplines. During the early years the group alternated touring (Europe, USA, Middle East, Canada and Latin America) with periods of creation in various countries. These wanderings encouraged an exchange of ideas, techniques and working methods with other artists that would strengthen the group\u2019s creative research.\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\nSince 1989 Mal Pelo has presented, among others, the pieces Quarere <\/i>(1989), Sur Perros del Sur<\/i> (South, Dogs of the South) (1992), Dol<\/i> (1994), La Calle del Imaginero<\/i> (The Street of the Imagineer) (1996), Orache <\/i>(1998), El Alma del Bicho<\/i> (The Insect\u2019s Soul) (1999 ), L’animal a l\u2019esquena <\/i>(The Animal on our Back) (2001), Atr\u00e1s los ojos<\/i> (Behind the Eyes) (2002), An el silenci <\/i>(An, Silence) (2003), BACH<\/i> (2004), ATLAS<\/i> (2005), Testimoni de llops <\/i>(Testament of Wolves) (2006), He visto caballos<\/i> (I\u2019ve Seen Horses) (2008) , Tots els noms <\/i>(All the Names) (2010), Ca\u00edn & Ca\u00edn <\/i>(2011), L’esperan\u00e7a de vida d’una llebre<\/i> (Life Expectancy of a Hare) (2013), El cinqu\u00e8 hivern <\/i>(The Fifth Winter) (2015), 7 Lunas <\/i>(Seven Moons) (2015), The Mountain, the Truth and Paradise<\/i> ( 2017); On Goldberg Variations \/ Variations<\/i> (2019), \u00a0Inventions<\/i> (2020) and Highlands (2021).\r\n\r\nIn 2001 Pep Ramis and Mar\u00eda Mu\u00f1oz set up L\u2019Animal a l\u2019esquena, a centre for multi-disciplinary creation and exchange of ideas, in a farmhouse with 19 hectares of land at Celr\u00e0 (Gerona). This is a refuge that encourages experimentation and the exchange of ideas and experiences between theatre directors, musicians, video artists, theorists and dancers, taking part in residencies, workshops and laboratories. Mal Pelo has received, among others, the Premio Nacional de Danza 2002 (National Dance Prize) awarded by the Generalitat de Catalu\u00f1a, for the piece L\u2019Animal a l\u2019esquena <\/i>and for founding the creation centre of the same name in Celr\u00e0. The company also won the Premio Nacional de Danza 2009, creation category, awarded by the INAEM-Ministerio de Cultura in recognition of its work in choreographic creation and opening up new paths in contemporary dance. Special mention for the piece Bach<\/i> and for the creation centre L\u2019animal a l\u2019esquena. The Premio Ciutat de Barcelona 2017 (City of Barcelona Prize) for contemporary dance was awarded to Mar\u00eda Mu\u00f1oz and Pep Ramis of the company Mal Pelo, for the generous and delicate interpretation of the piece Bach <\/i>and the brilliant and exceptional performance by Federica Porello, that sheds new light on the riches of the choreography by Mar\u00eda Mu\u00f1oz.\r\n\r\nPremio de la Cr\u00edtica, Barcelona 2018 (Critics\u2019 Prize) for the piece Bach<\/i> by Mar\u00eda Mu\u00f1oz and for Federica Porello as best female dance performer for her performance of Bach<\/i>.\r\n\r\nMedalla de Oro de la Academia de las Artes Esc\u00e9nicas de Espa\u00f1a, 2022.\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\nBest show and Best soundscape for ‘Highlands’, Associaci\u00f3 de Professionals de la Dansa de Catalunya, 2022.\r\n\r\nPremio Ciutat de Palma 2022 Margaluz de les Arts Esc\u00e8niques, 2022.\r\n\r\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/3″][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text]\r\n
