A curious take on the Caracoles subgenre of flamenco; a game of Who Am I; a human alphabet performed through Israel Galván’s dancing body; a recollection of Antonio el Marsellés’s antics, alongside Lorena Prain’s surreal-futuristic illustrations of flamenco scenes; the real meaning behind ACAB, as told by Tot Per Res; a detour through one of Japan’s most prominent flamenco institutions, the Shōji Kojima Academy; a feature documenting the annual pilgrimage of gitanos to Saintes-Maries-de-la-Mer; a series of climactic portraits capturing cantaores at the peak of their singing; an interview with revered Sevillian artist Pilar Albarracín; and the two covers created for this issue of the magazine.
