“Bell Bird” – Acrylic on Canvas, 60 x 40 cm

Dance is an artistic expression adopted by peoples around the world as a way of embodying and sharing their cultural heritage. Traditional dances, with their own music and choreography, form part of the intangible cultural legacy of a community and, for this reason, must be preserved without alteration.

Paraguay is no exception to this manifestation of folklore. The country offers a rich variety of traditional dances whose roots are deeply connected to the fusion of two cultures: the European and the indigenous Guaraní. This blend has given rise to vibrant and distinctive artistic expressions that remain a living symbol of Paraguayan identity.
