Resumen
SCHOPF, Demian. Fire and dogs. Índex [online]. 2017, n.4, pp.129-139. ISSN 2477-9199.
Many times I have been asked what is the relationship between the landscape and the dancers in The Minor Choirs and always the most elementary answer is the one of greater precision: both are made of the same world. The characters come from three places: Alto Hospicio, in Chile, and El Alto and Oruro, in Bolivia. In the Chilean case, the portrayed are dancers of the La Tirana festival, a celebration related to the Virgen del Carmen. In the Bolivian festival, they are carnival dancers who, like in the rest of the Catholic world, are celebrated throughout that country at the end of February.
Palabras clave : Oruro; Chile; La Tirana; photography; dancers.
