An illustrated guide to TANGO

Tango honors shining as a woman in a male-led dance. The follower uses feminine body language to express elegance, sensuality, and dexterity. Think of tango as two-way communication between two equal dancers. The woman contributes half of the conversation and the man the other half.

INSPIRATIONS

‘A Caricature of the Patriarchy’: Argentine Feminists Remake Tango

Cancionistas, women singers, subverted tango’s masculinity: Women were long prominent in tango, but not always in flattering ways. Songs often portrayed them as “dangerous social parasites, betrayers of their old lovers, their barrio, their values, and their social class,” according to Pellarolo. But women performers known as cancionistas pushed the genre forward. Cancionistas became public figures and models for Argentine femininity, Pellarolo explains. Their performances enraptured audiences of women, who saw themselves reflected on stage. And from the stage, the cancionistas found their own means of release. Performance was a form of freedom, Pellarolo writes, a reprieve from the “precarious employment opportunities [for those] who refused to accept outdated gender roles at the onset of capitalism.”
